here are some pictures of my quilt. I am not done but will be soon hopefully. After laying everything out I noticed I forgot to sew all the buttons on. I used the polka dot material not even thinking about it. I ended up putting on 3 layers for her skin cause she looked like she had the measles. It was too funny. But I had to live with it this was material I picked out for all of the background and only had trouble with the doll

Actually I don't have anyone to give it too. Thinking about maybe selling it.

Someone was asking about the face so I thought I would take a close up to show the face painting

I have been doing the same quilt, too cute. just have to sew the blocks together and then onto the doll block.

ok here is some progress that I made on my doll. Got the sides all sewed together and then onto the paperdoll block, Was doing real good so I decided I would go ahead and do the top & bottom too. Nope should have stopped at the sides, first I sewed them together wrong, they are suppose to be side by side but I put them below each other. Had to rip it all out, them went to sew the top on and what did I do but sew it upside down. Man I should have just stopped after the sides and went to bed. Now more ripping! GRRRRR! On by the way I had 1 beer so that might have had something to do with it since I am not a drinker.

Is this your own pattern? It is adorable. I have two little greats 4 mos. And 2 years,same Mommy. I would love to do something like this for them. But, I wonder if kids today even know what fun paper dolls are. I used to make my own from movie mags and design my own beautiful gowns and hand paint them. Wow, what memories.
