Posterize It: Shoot, Enlarge, Print and Sew Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have looked at the pre-packaged material to be used to print photos for quilting but never purchased any. I plan to do so today! After reading POSTERIZE IT!, I have so many ideas for new wall hangings that I don't know which one to start with!
I have used a digital camera for years and have several wonderful outdoor photos that I always thought would be nice on my walls but just didn't want to hang yet another photo frame. Now I don't have to. I can take that photo, print it on photo fabric and create a quilted wall hanging instead. I can even do the window lattice that I have always wanted to do in quilting but never did. This book will accomplish two of my "want-to-d0's" and I am excited to get started.
The book gives you five projects and also basic information on how to put a quilt together. It explains how to make your own printable fabric and which pre-packaged printable fabric they like and why. They also talk about which inks are best and how to care for your photo quilt once you create it. And since quilter's are very visual people, there are plenty of photos/graphics so you can see what they are explaining.
You can add embellishments such as appliqué or 3-D items to give it that extra touch. Or use your scanner and create a collage to print. The book gives you step-by-step directions on how to create the photo quilt from what supplies you will need right through to how to bind it.
Which one will you do first?
