Five More Doll Quilts Complete

Even though these are scrappy and had to

be thrown together very quickly, I've decided

to link up to amylouwhos mini quilt challenge

and Pocket Full of Pink's friday frolic.

But, I think I'm going to add several mini quilts

 to my "to-do" list and see how creative I can

really be with them.  How fun!

My second set of charity doll quilts are

completed, and a little earlier than I'd

 hoped--it's all about sticking to a schedule. 

(Meet the doll-quilt coordinator from

Stitchin' Therapy, and how I joined in here.) 

I played with some bright, cheery scraps and

made more wonky stars.  I tried out the binding

 method of using the backing and folding it

foward...didn't like that look at all.

But I was worried about the time so I threw

these two together just using strips/9-patch.

I put regular binding on these but instead of

hand-stitching the back, I did opt for the much

faster, but not as pretty, machine-stitching.

For the last one I really dug deep into the

basket and pretty much trashed my room

(and I can't believe I'm posting that pic) 

but... 

...the room is all back in order now, there's

an ever-so-tiny dent made in my scrap basket,

these 5 quilts will be shipped out tomorrow

and I'm already starting on a new project

that I'm pretty excited about. 

(Just dying use my new Riley Blake Christmas fabric!) 

A little more on that in a couple days.

Have a great weekend!
