A new quilt for the semester

Well it looks like I will be telling everyone how to put together a memory quilt as I make one this semester. About a year and a half ago my daughter lost her best friend, this young man also happened to be the next door neighbors grandson. I grew up with his mother and his uncle, when his grandmother returned from her yearly visit to Florida I asked her for pictures of the family so that I could make a special quilt for his mother. Over the weekend I received the pictures because she is getting ready to return to Florida, so now I can begin this quilt. Quilting with pictures means that you have to go and buy special material that will go through an ink jet printer. The next step is to prepare the pictures for printing,and then to print them onto this special fabric, which I will be starting to do this weekend.
