pink charlie brown doll quilt
I made another of these. First one is here Charlie Brown doll quilt . Before I finish this one, I'm wondering if it should have borders to make it larger. Right now, it is 15x18". Is that large enough for an American Girl doll?

I agree 100%. While I'm a newb to quilting, I do have experience sewing for dolls and I always make blankets longer than the height of the doll. Full disclosure tho-- I do like a generous blanket
The quilt is DARLING (just like the first one!) and I think it would look marvelous with a border. Some little child is going to be very happy. It's so vibrant and happy. Great work!
