braved using my cronky sewing machine
and made a dolly sized quilt. My sewing machine really needs looking at, its not very well, poor thing, though it was behaving well enough last night to let me make this. I was aiming for log cabin, I haven't tried it before, I dont have much patchwork experience really, only the odd bit of simple stuff. I dont know whether this is log cabin as it is a bit symmetrical, so it might be called something else. anyway, it started and finished in one night, and is a big hit with my littlest in particular.
So much so that I found her in the toy cot with dolly and playing like this. Though if I think about it now I understand why, we let our kids sleep in with us and havent used a crib since Esme was born, so thats just what mummys do!!

Oh I see now, Lucie is actually in the crib as well as dollie !
You started off log cabin, but then it changed, I'm sure dollie doesn't mind. Any how everyone does log cabin, so it's good to have a veriation on the theme ! (After all you were never one to follow the crowd, your far too individual for that !)
Oh my gosh. How adorable is that photo? Beautiful work on your dolly quilt.
What a sweet quilt :)
What a lovely cheerful quilt!
Your daughter is so cute in that crib :))
Do you mean you made the whole thing in one night? Wow!
Sorry I haven't been visiting for ages, many computer disasters and stuff :)
I love the paper blossom, especially the white one with the red wall...it looks gorgeously chinesey.
I really like the way you did it. Very beautiful, Well done for doing it in one night. I'm very impressed!
How sweet is she in that doll crib? Too cute! Thanks for commenting on my blog.
