SMALL, SMALLER, SMALLEST

 
Dolly Quilt No 1..

I am making two little dolly quilts for 
my granddaughters, Willa and Fiona,
for them to play with their "stuffies"--
[teddy bears and stuffed animal collections]

And here is Dolly Quilt No 2↧↧↧↧
I had these leftover little hourglass triangles
cut out of scraps with my Go! Baby
die cutter and thought they would make
cute small pieces...

I especially love how the little girls
at teatime
just peek out
this one all hatted up, too..;)))

These will be the centers and I will border them 
log cabin style;
one in light blue and the other in lilac
the girls' favorite colors...

Mean w h i l e....
Courthouse Steps is taking a bit of a rest;
as I have a very sore neck and shoulders
after sewing all but the last long row
together...

This will be a very 
L O N G  T E R M 
project.
I still have to decide if it needs borders;
and I have to make the backing...

I really appreciate all your input and comments
about this project...

Thanks to all of you who sent me encouraging
comments and emails...💃💞💞💞💫

It is so wonderful to have such a fantastic resource 
in our blogging community...

Soooooooooo,

I have decided NOT to take it all apart
and to forge ahead...
Come what may....
Wish me luck....
{and who knew that heavier quilts make for better sleep?}

File under Monday Baking:
Hmmm, what is cooling down
underneath this towel?
Gosh, it sure smells 
heavenly....

A lovely, plump banana nut bread
just right for our afternoon teatime.
A Treat...
