I realized that I never did show you the finished doll quilt I made for Shylee. This is the first applique quilt I've made and I thoroughly enjoyed it. For about three seconds, I considered keeping it for myself as a wall hanging, but Shylee knew it was for her! I guess that means I have to make another one!
My favorite part is the tree trunk. I love how it looks like real bark. I also like the tiny buttons in the center of the flowers. I didn't plan to use them, but when the flowers were done, they just needed something more. This was such a fun project and Shylee was thrilled...and that made this grandma happy!
I hope you have a spectacular weekend!

ReplyDeleteYou definitely need to make another one to hang on your wall. Would brighten any area :)
Beautiful fabric art and, yes, you need to make a keeper for yourself!
ReplyDeleteAnnette the quilt is adorable and it does not surprise me that Shylee loves - what girl (young or old) would not love it ?
ReplyDeleteTruly beautiful A. :)
ReplyDeleteGosh, I can't remember the last time I did any applique. But I LOVE doing it :)
Can't wait to see what you make for yourself :) T.
