Idea to Quilt Dolls
 
1 Attachment(s)
I folded them up to get them in the picture. I "thread-painted" their hair. I made the bodices of each flower. What do you think?

This is just pieced together, have not quilted yet. I ran out of Heat N Bond so I used Elmers.

Anastasia 05-04-2013 04:31 PM

Those are super awesome

Sapphire_Rae 05-04-2013 04:37 PM

I really like what you have done! Very creative, and nice that each dress is different, yet the same fabric.

CAS49OR 05-04-2013 04:51 PM

that was what I was going for. The bodices are different, made of the fabric. Thanks for seeing it!

They are wonderful!!!

Lisa_wanna_b_quilter 05-07-2013 08:21 AM

Please keep us posted on the project. I think it is going to be fabulous when you are finished.

It's such a modern twist on all the "lady" quilts I've seen.

Nammie to 7 05-07-2013 08:31 AM

What a fun concept! You are so creative to come up with that idea. Great look.

nativetexan 05-07-2013 08:46 AM

they are beautiful. I'd love to have a dress like that myself but I wouldn't look the same. very nice indeed!!

feline fanatic 05-07-2013 08:50 AM

Wow, very innovative and not at all what I expected when I opened the post. Can't wait to see the whole thing.

needles3thread 05-07-2013 08:59 AM

I think you are very good at designing and may have started a new technique......... look great

CAS49OR 05-08-2013 07:34 AM

Thank you, that's what I was thinking! How fun it would be to dress up! I"ll settle for dressing the "girls".

CAS49OR 05-08-2013 07:35 AM

Thank you everyone for your nice comments and encouragement. I'm a little scared about doing their faces. I haven't decided whether to draw or embroider, either way the area I'm working with is not very big!

Marti Sue 05-08-2013 07:52 AM

So cool. Great idea. Love them. Would make great "pins"

ube quilting 05-08-2013 08:46 AM

Way cool. Red carpet ready!
peace

CAS49OR 05-08-2013 03:47 PM

What do you mean by pins?

I'm still working on them. Scary at times, since I'm just winging it. I decided to draw their faces in with fabric markers. I don't think I'll ever be able to wash this quilt -- their hair will fall out! :confused:
