little red and white doll quilt

Something different, not exactly Redwork though I added a few running stitches in red just like aviva_hadas suggested.


Doll Quilt

whipup


Inspired by the doll and miniature quilts of the doll quilt swap I created my own version. The progess with such a small quilt is amazing only two nights and all hand piecing, basting and the first quilting lines were finished. If only my other project would go so fast. Now I wished it would grow into a big quilt all by itself…..


My little doll quilt as a WIP after two nights.

I love your doll quilt--it's unique and there's something about the way red and white work together that appeals to my soul.

I've been tentatively toying with the idea of making a quilt, nad have had a few attempts but never finished one successfully.

This, however, has inspired me - as has your redwork designs. I'm going to make a monochrome, appliqueed and embroidered mini quilt for display. And it will be fabulous, and it will all be thanks to you!
