This is what I did this weekend. I started a new project and actually finished it!
How could Grandma not remember to make Little Miss a quilt for her dolls? I guess we have so many here that she uses that I forgot about her house! So on Friday I took out all my pink fabrics, go figure, her favorite color is pink too!
Using my go cutter I cut out 3 1/2 inch squares.
I even fussy cut a few.
Laid them out in a pleasing pattern.
AND YES!!
went to the machine to make the top.
Next up, I layered it, pinned it, and used Presencia Thread to tie it in all the corners.
I decided to pull the backing to the front for the binding and used the machine to sew it down. I wanted this to last and hand sewing the back did not seem to be a viable option.
The backing is a pink glitter fairy fabric.
Of course a pillow to match.
It was all ready and waiting for her when she arrived today.
Did she like it?
Oh yes!
The baby, pillow and a care bear were put into her stroller, covered up and pushed all around the house.
When Mom came home at lunch it was put into a bag and off to it's new home.
What did you do this weekend?
That is one cute set! Love all that pink.

ReplyDeleteI have been working on a few projects simultaneously. This is not unusual for me. I did start a new one. I decided to make fabric boxes for goodies for the ladies coming to my daughter's baby shower. Maybe someday soon I will be making dolly blankets ... a lovely thought ... :) Pat
