It takes just as long to make a dolls dress as it does for a grown human/ only difference is that there are more stitches. I made dolls clothes on an assembly line with my daughters and their friend after school and holidays to make a little money for Christmas gifts.
I an having problems trying to decide how to finish the baby boys quilt. It starts with tractors in the middle with blue sashing around it then a row of square in a square blocks all round and then it STOPS. I can't figure what to put next. I want to make it about 45inch square. the Boy is nearly 2 yrs now.
I know what you mean I started a quilt that I have made before called sleeping bears for my neighbors D was having a baby started 3mo before he was born finished when he was 6mo old fought it all the way.
