A Bitty Doll Quilt...

I was kind of restless last night...
didn't want to read,
didn't want to watch tv,
didn't want to do anything that I  
should have been doing...

so this is what I did.

It's about 9x9 inches...each square is 1 1/2 inches.
Made with the same fabric I used for this doll quilt.
It's not been washed, yet, so it's not all crinkly.

I really like making little quilts.
Like you couldn't tell, hey?
It's an (almost) instant gratification thing,
I'm guessing.

And, besides...they're just too dang cute.

Have a great week!

That is a very cute quilt. Two ladies that I knew that have both passed on gave me bags of already cut squares and I have looked at them and wondered what to do with them, now I do. Doll quilts! So sweet and I love the material.

Jacque!!! Tiny little quilts??? I remember how you said to me once that you couldn't do little rugs and was amazed at the little ones I did. Now look at you making little quilts! LOL It's beautiful, I knew you could do "little"....

That is so cute!
I think that is why I like making the dishrags, doesn't take much time and I can make a lot of them as opposed to a large afghan.
Keep up the good work!

Great Colors Jacque...
I always love the patterns with your sewing you do on them, makes them come alive!!!

I want to start this simple kind of Rag Rug. Here's the link but might take awhile to load.

there's a video, tell me what you think.

I used to make the braided rugs BUT this is out of simple rags and thin fabrics. Love It!!
Can't get any easier than this and I really like the way they look.
