here it is.
my day.
have you been visiting all the blogs for dolly blog??
anyway...
i was lucky enough to meet holly @ market
and well the rest is history.
so here it is.
my dolly dresses quilt.
keep it simple.
since i plan on having this be a gift...
and have the recipient be able to play with it.
i went with no embellishment...
you can never be too careful with little ones!
{and while all the ric rac & what not is super cute.. so are the dresses on their own!}
i love how the triangles frame each dress...
and i quilted it in a fine white so the dresses stand out.. not the quilting.
and a pieced back.
as usual.
i used my more personal label since it is a gift.
and framed it with the leftover border from the panels...
i think any little one would be happy to play with this...
playmat
nap time quilt
wall hanging
tablecloth
just about anything!
i hope you like it as much as i do!!
That is so adorable! a little girl will adore it!
