What about paper dolls? The kind where you used to fold up strips of paper into concertina fashion, then cut out simple doll shapes holding hands. If you did these in freezer paper, you could iron the strips onto the quilt, then sew around - all along one side, then back down the other side. By the way, Morgan is still making a good recovery? It was good to hear that she is now in rehab, and getting around in a wheel chair. I hope she will soon be out of it, and getting around on her own two feet!
