My cousin's daughter had her first communion a week ago and so I thought it would make a nice gift to make a doll quilt for her American Girl dolls, I asked and she still plays with them. Besides I wanted to try out my new half/square triangle template for my accuquilt, which by the way, cut beautiful perfect little knotched half sq. triangles, so when you lay the fabric one side down, one side right side up, all you do is pick up in pairs and chain stitch...so quickly and iron and perfect, amazing. I had some fun using up some scraps and a wild striped backing and binding, complete the quick little project with some double hearts quilted. I hope this is just loved on a lot, I photographed it using my daughter's Magic Attic doll, I found in her room. I think I could get into these little quilts, what a nice feeling to have something done, so quickly.
