And I must highlight the hand-quilted "baptist fan" design on the light blue denim background.

Please note the lovely chain stitch on the label Barb put on the back.

I am so lucky to have such a talented partner and what a lovely addition to our doll quilt show. Thanks again, Barb, from Kathy in Colorado




I had fun making this one. This was the first time I tried making the chenille and also using the crayons with the embrodery. Both are real easy to do. Glad you liked it.
