I just love the picture with the honey bee on it they are sooooo cool. love flowers, bugs, quilts, grandkids. (not in that order of course).

Usually not my cup of tea,but I love this. great job.

Wow that is beautiful!!!!!

Great job! Both the photography and the quilting,

Beautiful quilt, I just may need to do this with some of the pics my son took while he was in Japan.

Beautiful!! You did a great job!

It is fun to use your own photographs isn't it? Looks awesome.

Wonderful work!!!!

I treated fabric, ironed freezer paper to the back, cut to 8.5 X 11, cut corners off of one end so it didn't jam in the printer, and printed the photo. Left it to cure 24 hours, removed freezer paper, pressed on back to heat se, waited another 24 hours (probably "overkill"), washed with luke-warm water and Quilt Wash, rinsed, air dried, and pressed again from the back. I also - prior to doing any of the above - intensified the colors (Photoshop) so that if there was a bleed I would still have good color left in the fabric photo. Seemed to work just fine. Thanks for asking - even if I did answer more than you asked. I haven't found (so far) any purchased fabric sheets that come close to having the same hand as the ones that you prepare yourself. The ones that you do yourself can be hand quilted, hold their shape yet the drape well.

Thanks for the comment. That photo is one of my favorites too. Printed it out and made a small quilt quilt that I hand quilted and gave to my favorite LQS - the Quilter's Bee. Plan to do another one with another one of my favorites - the butterfly. Took that picture up at our campsite in Flagstaff - that little guy had a wingspan that was over 6" - had never seen a butterfly that large.
