Does any one here do dollhouse miniature quilts? That is what got me started in all this. I would love to make some and want to see all the pictures I can.

I've made one, 1/12th scale, for a four poster, hence the cut outs at the bottom. The hex's were English Paper Pieced, and hand stitched, with some fussy cutting.

That is adorable! I can imagine that it must have been a putsie thing to do.

Oh that is amazing. My dollhouse people would be so thrilled if I learn to do that. I found a 1/12 scale quilting frame on ebay. I am going to try to make a frame like it. Just in case I am able to make them a quilt.

That is great! Thanks too, for letting me know that there is a way to make a quilt that has to adapt for corners :)

I made one for my doll house. I just did a teeny 9 patch. I don't have a picture though and right now I don't know where my camera battery charger is and the doll house is still packed.
