Dollhouse Quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
I have to thank Luci177 for introducing this great dollhouse quilt panel to everyone last year. She made such a great quilt for her granddaughter and when I saw it, I knew I had to have it! I found it online and made one for my granddaughter's 3rd birthday this month. I also made her some fabric 'paper dolls' to play along with it. It was such a fun project and I enjoyed it so much! And I also could relate to Luci177's comment that she would like to have kept it and enjoyed it for awhile herself. I worked on mine right up to the day I had to part with it and I, too, would have liked to 'look' at it for awhile. And paper dolls! I don't need to say anything about those, I have such great memories of my dad bringing them home for me and my sisters and we would play for hours. So thank you for posting yours Luci177, you never know when something you share will be enjoyed by others so much as to inspire them to repeat it : )

What a fabulous quilt with great "paper" dolls! Your granddaughter will love it - if not at age 3, then soon.

Wonderful gift for your dgd!

quilterpurpledog 02-14-2017 04:27 PM

I have never seen that panel; but, I wish I had! Your doll house quilt is a treasure and so are your fabric paper dolls. I am soon to celebrate my 80th birthday and I still have my paper dolls. I have never been able to part with them as I liked to play with them so much. I know your granddaughter will love her gift. Thank you for sharing it with us.

redquilter 02-14-2017 05:33 PM

Very, very cute. Love the "paper" dolls. I too have wonderful memories of paper dolls. My friend & I would play for hours and make our own paper clothes for them. Childhood was simpler then.

kaylfordsollimo 02-15-2017 05:28 AM

This brought back memories of we three older girls walking 6 blocks to the 5 and 10¢ store to spend our dimes on paper doll books (I'm going to be 77 in a couple of months, so that will give you a time frame). Then returning home to spend the rest of the day cutting out and playing with those precious finds. Do they even make those anymore? BTW, love the quilt.

Pam P 02-15-2017 06:56 AM

They do! I actually found a book of them that had about 6 dolls and pages and pages of cut out clothes and accessories. Of course I bought it! I have also seen some that can be colored in line with the latest coloring book fad. Thanks for looking!

JoyjoyMarie 02-15-2017 07:19 AM

What an absolutely darling quilt!! Your fond memories bring back some of my own, and I just sent a pack of paper dolls that my daughter had, up to her for her daughter to play with. (Trying to cure my hoarding habit and clear out this old place!) They had a ball with them, so I was glad they were put back into action and out of my cedar chest!
