Doll Quilt is Finished

Finished stitching down the binding at our sewing group gathering at Wildflour Bakery yesterday. After lunch, I went to their little downstairs antique mall and saw a doll that had to come home with me. She is "Meg" from Little Women. Here she is enjoying her new quilt.

Little Quilt for March

I belong to Kathleen Tracy's Small Quilts Yahoo group and am working on the March selection -Scrappy Triangles Doll Quilt from her book "American Doll Quilts". The challenge was to use our "ugly" fabrics.

 
When those "uglies" are cut into small pieces they don't seem ugly anymore.
 
 
I'm hand quilting it.
