Memory Quilt

Hurrah!  I've done all of the blocking for my mother-in-law's memory quilt.  Each picture block is approximately 12" square and the overall size (unfinished) is just over 5' square.  Excluding design and printing time, it's taken me about 8 hours so far and I am very pleased with it.  The photos printed beautifully - the printer fabric was very easy to use.  Of course, the patchwork is the easy part though... the hard work starts tomorrow when I start putting the actual quilt together.  I'm off to Calico Barn first thing to buy some batting as the stuff I've got already isn't wide enough for this quilt.  I'm also taking DH with me in the hope that he'll pay.....
