There is an old saying, � �A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words� �. Now that priceless picture can be brought to life with a photo blanket. Imagine having a picture from the last family gathering, a celebration or even the family pet placed on something that can be snuggled with. Photo blankets are becoming the latest trend in photography gifts and keepsakes. Photo blankets are providing a new way to keep precious memories close to the heart!

To begin, a picture is scanned into the computer. The computer then uses software to create an image that will be transferred into cloth form. Using a computerized weaving loom, the photo image is transferred onto the blanket material. Once transferred additional effects can be added. This can include lines of text to display who is in the picture or a sweet sentiment to remember an event. Borders, shading and coloring are additional options available.
