  Pat,
  Anna is right there is a class at Quilting weekly on how to print photos to fabric. But do to the variances in computers, scanners, cameras etc. I could only give general information on how to get photo in the computer. Although there are many other useful tips in the class to help you put together your quilt. If you want to check it out, we do have a money back guarantee.
  
  But to answer your question, you need to get the photos to your computer. You can do this a number of ways.
  
  1. scan them in if you have a scanner.
  2. if you have the negatives (older pictures) you can bring them to a photo store where they can put them on a disk for you to put on your computer.
  3. I believe the Walgreens (a local drugstore in USA)has a self serve machine where you can put the photos in, and re-print them in any size and I believe they can be put to a disk as well there.
  
  Printing to the fabric sheets, is something that I am not sure if the copy stores are equipped to do. Certainly worth a call to see.
  
  When printing to the fabric sheets you need a ink jet printer to transfer the ink to the fabric sheets. Laser printers will not work. (not sure if copy stores have ink jet printers, many have laser)
  
  Hope this helps you. But if you need more direction here e-mail me, I would be glad to guide you through the process.
