Had to do something little because of all the minis posted here!?

Could not do it any smaller without losing accuracy so I decided to make a doll quilt. Maybe the new grandchild will be a girl and mid octobre I will go for four weeks abroad and I have something to handquilt with me :lol:

On the border I plan echo quilting and the background of the plates a grid. But what should I do on the white triangles? Dont like feathers for this one.
Can I find some stencils online that I could print out in a smaller size?

thanks for looking
Granny

finished size will be 19 x 25 inch

big sister has to stay home

Wow, that is so charming!
Regardless of the size, it has a great layout and borders.
Actually, I think they look even better in such a small scale.

How tiny are those 9Patch cornerstones?
