trip to the beach - I used a digital photo that represents one of my son's and his wife's favorite "poses", namely, walking away from the camera. I blew it up to a size that used 9 8.5x11 sheets of printer fabric, and once it was assembled, with a coordinating pieced border, I touched up the main figures in the picture with paintsticks and after heat setting, went ahead and free motion quilted, making pebbles on the beach, or streaks in the sky, etc. I gave this to them for Christmas.
