My Mock Cathedral Window Quilt. Made with used jean material, and leftover fabrics and batting from previous quilt projects. Decorative stitching from my Singer 224, piecing from Singer 201, and binding Davis NVF.

So much variety on here - I love them all!
Monica - I'm very impressed with the curved seams on the colour wheel, and such lovely restful colours on the mock cathedral window quilt
Candace - gorgeous bag - Special occasions only, surely!
Charlee - your doll definitely has an inbuilt corset. What's her waist measurement, two and a half inches?
Chris - Aunt May's smile says it all. What a beautiful present you made for her.

The mini scissors are buttons that I found at JoAnn's. Fabrics are all scraps.

Also, your mock cathedral windows hammock looks very inviting.
