Farmhouse Doll Bed and Quilt

Posted on October 19, 2011July 28, 2015 by Martha

Gordon just finished making the doll bed to go with Marjorie’s quilt — a Christmas gift.  The bed was designed by Ana White and is available as a free download on her site.  The directions are great — I only changed the length of the legs to make the bed a little higher off the ground.  This is a popular pattern, and there are lots of photos online of other people’s cute beds.  Because Gordon bought such nice wood, I decided to keep the bed natural.

The quilt is described in an earlier post; the mattress and pillow are made with heavy vintage ticking.

I think my niece’s daughter (and our flower girl), Marjorie, is going to love it.

    It looks cute natural. It looks so good all together. The little quilt is a good way to use small vintage pieces.

    Love it! I bookmarked the site so my husband can make me one! And then I’ll need a doll for it. And then it’ll need a quilt. And then….well you get the point!

    Is there a pattern for the doll bed and how long is it. I need to make one for my Hitty dolls and love this one. Thanks for any information you can provide me.
