I have had a test sample yard printed of old family images to make a quilt. The fabric turned out better than I expected. I did think of one thing that I will do different. With all the different sizes of image, it would be a nightmare to sew them up. So I am going to arrange the images so they are in 7 or 8 inch blocks which will be easy to cut out, then edge the blocks in some small print brown and black calicos. easy to sew up. Some of the modern pics were color, I changed to greyscale. I used My Print Design company and Premium Cotton, runs $19 a yard, is 50 inches wide. My three sisters and brother are participating in this project, figure it will take 2-2 1/2 yards for each of us.
