By printing photos on fabric, I was able to create a Thanksgiving memory wall hanging. I added coordinating fabrics and themed embroidery designs to finish it!	I machine embroidered "Thanksgiving 2001" in the upper left corner on a piece of fabric before adding it to my project.
The fabrics and photos are just thrown together in various directions to mimic a crazy quilt pattern. Then I stitched a decorative feather stitch in the ditch of all the seams using brown Oliver Twist thread.	The turkey is embroidered on the tan fabric before incorporating it into my wall hanging. The photos are printed on fabric sheets and then cut down before incorporating them into my design. It was a neat project to stitch!!
The photo of my two sisters trying on hats on a shopping trip was perfect for the theme of this project! I created the border fabric by sandwiching sequins, metallic threads and sparkles between black fabric and black organza.	Hologram metallic threads just called for "Lights, Camera, Action." Paper scrapbook embellishments add to the theme.
Star cutouts from sparkled felt contain rhinestones in each point and rhinestone letters for my sisters' names. This just makes everything dazzle for these two "stars."	Lady, our sweet little dog, loves to be the center of attention as portrayed in this photo printed project. Buttons of puppies, bones and paw prints are scattered with freehand quilting squiggles.
