Leftover Projects Completed, part 1--Scottie Doll Quilt



There is a plan in the back of my mind to make each of my granddaughters a special doll quilt-- this one was started quite a while ago, using pieces from my collection of reproduction vintage prints.

Since my work is slow at the first of the year, I'm enjoying some project catch-up time!

Each of the little doggie blocks is hand appliqued, with black buttonhole stitched edges. I added tiny black button eyes and machine quilted it using 'Warm and White' batting, which I must say washed up to a lovely snuggly feel. Another project finished! A doll will be warm and cozy.
