Ok the first picture is the finished wall hanging I posted earlier about. I took it outside and it doesnt look that great, but it is in person :) My husband said she is going to cry when she sees it. He will be making a wood wall hanging for it. I did a VERY simple qulting on it. Just around the picturs and also around the borders. I think the letters turned out pretty neat looking. Makes it almost look like lace.

I love this one! I need to do one of these for my daughter's wedding. How did you transfer photos? Did you follow instructions in a book, or what?

Beautiful work.... Thanks for sharing. Did you do the pictures yourself or did you take them somewhere to be copied? I am trying to build up my courage to do one each for my kids as a memory of their childhood. Thanks for any info!
