    Photo Quilts

    Does anyone know where I can find info on a computer program which makes a picture into a poster- size image ? I can't remember where I heard of it, I believe it allowed you to print the enlarged image by dividing it into 4 sheets (or more) of copy paper. any info on reproducing images for quilts would would be great.

    Judy, I believe most printers will allow you to print larger pix by using multiple sheets of paper. If you have a printer, see if it offers that option. I have an inexpensive Lexmark 4-in-1 which does but I may be making an incorrect assumption about others. If so, my apologies. If yours does not, maybe Kinko's? Good luck

      There is one program called Hugh Pictures. Ebay has great buys on software to convert pics to poster size. Do a search on Ebay and get the names of the different sofware then you can go to the website of each and find the one that fits your needs.

        Hi Judy,
        There a free download at http://www.postersw.com/
        You can use it 10-12 times, then you can buy the regitration key for
        $15-20. I've used it for years -- worth every cent. There's a lot of options for printing and layouts.
