"Blue" that's how I was feeling on Saturday night, and this is what I came up with, just started sewing with some scrap triangles left over from a churn dash quilt in progress and did not stop until I was done. I'm disappointed with my borders, but it is a true doll quilt in the fact that one of the purposes used to be to teach young children sewing skills, so that is what I love about doll quilts it gives you a chance to experiment with new techniques you want to try....so quilting borders needs some work. I also like to try out new quilt patterns on something small before I use them a on larger piece. I do like this set up block and borders.
