I purchased this book, because I was looking for a hobby. Something to use my computer and still be crafty. I experimented briefly with Scrapbooking, but it didn't suit my personality, but this book seemed to. The major problem was the inability to locate the inkjet fixative in my local stores, but after going through the book, it told me how to buy the supplies online, which I did. I did a test project and it worked perfectly. I have not performed any of the projects listed in the book yet, but I've used the book as a guideline and have created my own projects. This is great fun, even though it stresses the HP Printer, it works equally well with my Canon Printer. You can buy inkjet printable fabric sheets in the stores, but I liked this because I am only limited by the printing size of my printer. I can use any fabric, not just the pre cut sizes.

This book is full of ideas for quilts that are a bit out of the ordinary and far from the traditional. The full color photos show the finished quilts which are a great inspiration. The varied projects included inside the pages give insight to many other crafting avenues as well as quilting. I own many quilt and craft books, but epspecially like the personal touch that these projects afford the quilter/crafter.

Cyndy Lyle Rymer edits PHOTO FUN: PRINT YOUR OWN FABRIC FOR QUILTS & CRAFTS offers twelve quilt and accessory projects using color photos and graphics, and easy picks for beginners in either computers or quilting. From finding the latest news on working with digital cameras and scanners to using any brand of inkjet printer or scanner for polished results, this is a fine crafts title for any quilter seeking to personalize products.

I have yet to receive it. Will not order from AMAZON again... Don't like getting cheated.
