Doll quilt swap done and received

I mailed off the doll quilt swap to my partner and she got it yesterday so I can now show you the whole thing, not just a corner.  I know that I was a tease! Sorry.



I really tried to do some nice quilting but I'm definitely challenged in that regards.  I did some sort of circles in the solid squares;  I did waves (sort of) that intersected on the borders.



In this picture you get a better look at the quilting.  I think the blue I used matched the fabric so perfectly, that you can't see it.  In the individual blocks, I used a tan thread, which shows up.  I think next time I won't try to match the fabric so well.

My recipient was happy with her quilt so that makes me happy.

This pattern was from the Temecula book, Quirky Little Quilts.  I did the sew-along this past month and decided that I loved it so much I'd make it as the doll quilt swap.

TADA!!  Thanks to Lori (humblequilts) for organizing this swap again!
