Transferable pix?

Question

For my three year anniversary with my boyfriend I wanted to make him a quilt, with some of our pictures on some of the fabric pieces.

I’m not an advanced quilter, but I have been making cute little rag quilts for 5 years now. I wanted to kinda tweak my pattern and make it a solid blue back with the squares only on the front, and I want pictures on them.

I use flannel and 9x9in square fabric. What are some methods or suggestions for getting the pix onto my fabric, and is transfer paper just a messy easy way out?!?

Thank you

The best thing to do is print pics on fabric using bubblejet set 2000.  I don't think you could it on blue fabric, the ink won't come out against it.  It would be the same thing with transfer paper, but that would make the fabric stiff.  You could make white blocks with blue borders.
