I just discovered a wonderful link for turning a picture into a grid for patchwork!
Believe me it is a very
addicting online tool.....I have already tried several pictures
and I know I will try many more before I find the one that I want to make into a quilt.
It is lots of fun : )
The online tool is found here:
The Victoria and Albert Museum---Patchwork Pattern Maker http://www.vam.ac.uk/microsites/quilts/patchwork
Check it out and let me know what you think?
