    Very nice. Hope it takes it a lot of mney.
    What batting did you use? What fabric to print the photo on?
    Thanks for sharing.

    OMG that's gorgeous! I thought it was a photo at first glance.

    I had a scrap of polydown near me and
    used that. Wool would have given me the puff too. I use Bubble Jet 2000 and try to find white fabric with just a little sheen on it to print onto, cotton of course. But there are ready made sheets at quilt shops and fabric stores that you can use. The instructions say to wash after printing to get excess ink out. DON'T. Your photos will stay sharper if not rinsed. There is no reason to take that excess ink out. It was fun.

    What ever you put your hand to does very well. I have seen enough of your work to know you are an artist with fabric.
