...my wonderful Granddaughter! She and her Mom came to visit from Ohio for about 10 days (we just took them to the airport this morning to go home). It was a wonderful visit and about 6 days into the visit she finally wanted to go to my sewing room.

I had an idea of an easy doll quilt to make, so had been saving small scraps for about a month or so. Well, she decided after exploring that we should make a quilt for 'Angelina', her 18" doll she brought with her. So I cut two pieces of white material for the front and the back, and the batting to go in between. Then I told her to dig into my scrap bucket and see what she wanted on the quilt.

So she picked out the pieces, told me where to sew them, and pressed the reverse lever when asked to, and the cut thread button when told to cut. As we were working along -- start to finish took about 1.5 hours -- she said, "Grandma - this is the best teamwork ever!"

very nice. cute little one.

Mia is a precious little doll herself and the quilt is really cute as well.

What a little charmer,love the second picture of her and it is lovely that she was interested in helping make her doll a quilt - perhaps you started her creative desires. Lovely doll quilt - she made great color choices to enhance her quilt. She will always have a great memory of you for helping her with her quilt.
