After last week's shoe fail, I knew I had to redeem myself. So I decided I would make my friend who just had a baby a doll and doll quilt. I used this pattern from Bit of Whimsy Dolls. It was on sale last week, but doesn't look like it is any longer. I had all of the materials on hand so I was able to use up some of my stash. I used a pattern from the Wee Wonderful book for the doll quilt. This was my first attempt at quilting so I pretty much winged it.
I also used this tutorial to create a pretend binding. It worked perfectly.
Now I just have to mail the gift, which seems to be harder than all of the sewing.
Happy Crafty Tuesday.
