This is the doll quilt that I made for Kim, and she has received it now, so I can post it here. I saw an antique doll quilt like this on pinterest that had been made circa 1870 - 1890, so I thought I would try to make a duplicate. I didn't know what to use for the border, but I was digging through my stash and found this fabric which was perfect and it had the cheddar in it, so I used some cheddar for the basket and binding.
I machine quilted it since I really can't do much hand sewing any more.
This was a lot of fun! Thanks, Lori!!
Your little quilt is gorgeous! So many beautiful quilts have been exchanged this year, I really hope to be able to take part next year.
