Glad the tips are helpful! Just remembered it's also a good idea to use finer thread than usual (say 60/2 instead of the usual 50/3, or even finer if you have it). It is not only more in scale with the doll-size quilt, it also helps keep the quilt supple after quilting. I once stipple-quilted a doll quilt with regular thread and it came out so stiff it would have functioned better as a potholder!
