The quilt for Baby Doll is finally finished. BD is the youngest daughter of my blog friend, Ann at Nifty Needle, and she needed a “blanket” for her doll. I think she is going to like this sunny yellow quilt made with 30s scraps. The prints in the top and the yellow fabric are vintage — the binding and backing are new. The batting is a piece of an old flannel sheet.
Because the colors reminded me of spring, I decided to quilt little tulips in the yellow spaces — they’re pretty small, so I hope you can make them out. The printed areas are quilted with an elongated football shape.
Tomorrow this little quilt will be on its way to Texas.
