Doll quilts.......

I finished the 2 little doll quilts last night while I was watching TV.  They are for Debbie for her Christmas project.  Ugh, I just realized I made them 2" too narrow.  I'm going to send them anyway and maybe they can go in the bottom of the cradles.  Sorry Debbie, I guess I wrote down the wrong size when I took the note to my studio.
I flipped one over so you can see the backing I used.  So many times when making a baby quilt it has to be unisex and I end up with all of these cute girly prints that I can't use in them.

Oh, Wanda, what an absolutely wonderful surprise for a Monday morning!!!! These 2 are just delightful and believe me 2 inches does not matter for this project. It's the thought and love that does. the little ones will love the cute fabric and I deeply thank you.

Those are so cute! Great use of those little triangles. I doubt if the dolls will mind the size.

Very cute. I would hate to tell you how many times I have made measurement mistakes. Grr. I'm sure she can make it work.

The doll quilts are so sweet! I started quilting because even it a quilt is not exactly the right size like a piece of clothing needs to be, the quilt can still be used!

The doll quilts are as much fun as all the quilts you design. The prints are absolutely ADORABLE ! Especially the paper doll. When I was a little girl I loved paper dolls. Almost makes me weep as to how many years ago that was.

I LOVE them! I'm sure any doll would be happy to have one.

Hi Wanda,
Very cute doll quilts! Our quilt guild contributes to Santa Claus Girls, where members purchase a new doll and then make a little quilt to go with. These would be fairly simple and just right!

I'm guessing that your frosted creams are topped with a basic buttercream frosting. Do you make about 2 cups of frosting to cover that size of pan?
Keep warm!
