Little bits and pieces

I can't seem to leave my little squares alone!

I made a little tiny..

Itsy bitsy...

quilt.

A picnic quilt.

;)

The dolls at my house are happy folk today.

They haven't ever had a HOMEMADE quilt!

1 1/2" squares were used.

I did not use batting.

After joining all the squares together

I added the backing pillowcase fashion

and slip stitched the edge closed.

I added little pink ties in all the corners.

It measures 4"x 5"

The dolls are all in a dither.....

trying to figure out who gets to use it FIRST!

Doll quilt

My dear friend grew up playing with this little doll quilt.

I imagine it was made in the early 70s.

Its construction is very basic.

It's just two layers of fabric.

No batting at all.

She brought it over to have a seam re-sewn.

A SUPER simple fix.

;)

She has some WONDERFUL memories of using this quilt

in her childhood as she played with dolls.

 

Made me realize that doll quilts have a special place

in little girls hearts!!!

It Made me think I should make some!!!

Yes....

It Made me want to make ANOTHER QUILT!!
