Anyone started their doll quilt top yet?!

    I got all that done (above) in an hour (naptime) and in another 20-30 min got the stippling done (after the kids went to bed).  This is only the 2nd time I've ever stippled!  I'm totally addicted.





    Now I have a week left to get the binding done before the birthday party.  I don't know how long it will take me to hand finish it all the way around with three little boys running around at home.

      Wow, jenmbarnes-- I love the stippling...  Everyone's done such a great job with the free-motion quilting!  I'm still working on mine and I only have one little boy running around at home. 

      I love seeing all of the pics!

         Cheesy  Yay!  I finished!  I blogged about it herehttp://kindredcrafters1.blogspot.com/2009/03/doll-quilt-most-crookedy-and-most-loved.html  It's not perfect by far but I'm pretty proud. Thanks, Alissa for such a great sew along.

            I finished mine yesterday. I'm new at sewing, and the stipling and binding were challenging, but I had a lot of fun!! Thanks for the opportunity to learn!  All of the quilts posted are beautiful...  Smiley

                I just started a little Dolls Quilt for my daughter. I have used fabric from my favourite local designer - Prints Charming.

                A little bit of hand quilting and project will be completed.

                  So I never took a photo of the whole thing open, but here is a peak at it folded and ready for giving.  I guess I don't know how to include an image, but it will be on my blog tomorrow:

                    I really hope to start my quilt soon. I'm hoping for some new fabric to go with my daughter's bedspread. This is going to be fun!

                      I actually fiinshed mine on time! It's one of the first projects I've actually finished - although it's not a little quilt, my mum looked at the work in progress, I'd commented that I wasn't sure what to do with it at the end, and she made note that there was a patchwork cushion in her kitchen that needed a makeover... It turned out the quilt top was a perfect fit! So! Not only was it my first attempt at quilting, but also my first time for putting a zip in too. It's only now that I've gotten around to putting the photos on the computer.

                      I'm stumped as to how to put a photo in the reply, so the link to Flickr is:

                        I am quite a bit late in posting this but I've finally put up pics of my two finished Doll Quilts on my blog.

                        I actually finished these shortly after the sew-along ended but it's taken me this long to take the photos and post them. Smiley  Now I have to get started on the skirt sew-along!
