Off topic but I had to show you my Doll Quilt I got from oldcatlady from the May Doll Quilt swap. The theme was quilty chaos - crazy quilts. oldcatlady spent alot of time making this and I love it! The doll quilt swap is alot of fun as it doesn't take long to make and uses up scraps! Here is my quilt, [ATTACH=CONFIG]347391[/ATTACH] and some more pictures [ATTACH=CONFIG]347392[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]347393[/ATTACH]

oh boy Hav~ I always liked the way they looked but had never made one until the doll quilt swap in May and now I'm obsessed with them haha....I pick up stuff everywhere now that can be used on them!! It's all Krystyna's fault and then she enables me further by sending lace and satin and velvet and all kinds of goodies to go on the crazy quilt:thumbup:

where is the pic of the one you made? i really love the look of them but i am not sure my ordered brain can deal effectively with trying to construct the seemingly chaotic and unordered look of a crazy quilt. yep that would be a whole other skill set for me.:)

I had 2 partners that month and 2 completely different doll quilts. One was done in a sewing motiff and other, the one I posted pictures of was victorian.
