Yes, a squirrel scampered through my sewing room and for some reason this happened...
This, being a little quilt for a doll bed. Our little granddaughter will be getting a doll bed for her birthday in January (along with the rag doll I made her several months ago) and what self-respecting grandma could have a 'nekkid' bed with no bedding? I *should* have been working on PJ's but that pesky squirrel had other plans.
- THESE are awwww-worthy ( I know they're earmarked for Easter, but I don't see why they wouldn't be fun in the winter)
- Perhaps you might have a use for THESE in your Christmas crafting.
- HERE is another great little gift.
- I've seen a lot of THESE around the internet but thought it would be fun to share an article about them in case you're interested in doing one in 2026. I think it would be an amazing gift for a newborn or commemorating the first year of a marriage.
Today's quote...
of course her new baby doll needs a new quilt! jimmiejams can wait a minute - this was important!!!
ReplyDeleteI thought so! Now I'm on a quest to find some foam to make a mattress for the bed and I have some flannelette leftovers that I can use to make some sheets and a pillow.
DeleteI love the doll quilt. Isla will be so happy with her new doll and furnished bed.
ReplyDeleteIt's such fun to be able to create girlie things for a change!

ReplyDeleteThank you - hopefully she'll like it.

ReplyDeleteI take my grandmotherly duties very seriously!
DeleteIn this case, you were wise to follow the squirrel trail! That little doll blanket is really sweet! Your granddaughter will love it!
ReplyDeleteStill trying to find some foam to make a mattress and once I have that I have enough leftover fabric from her pj's to make some sheets for it.
