    Hehe, don't mind being a guinea pig, DQ's are the best way to try out new designs and techniques. I too tried something different and I'm on the fence whether I like it or not. Decided to leave it alone for a day or two and come back to it and then see if I like it.

    That is exactly what I am doing. Got it done, just some final assembly, and can't make a decision on how to do it. I figure it will stand up and tell me what it wants, I just have to give it a chance! Love this theme.

    You ARE fast! Yours is pieced and put together, but that's it for the moment...hopefully by Friday I can mail out to you. Be watching for a sneak peek.

    My first time involved with making a doll quilt, I am nervous and excited all at the same time. My daughter will be helping me out.

    LucyLou512...welcome! You'll find it's fun and this is a great group. You'll learn a lot, as you can experiment with new techniques on these small projects. This month's theme is sure to result in some lovely doll quilts!

I think she is not impressed. square one? probably argh. its too.. hippy like perhaps for her tastes which might mean it is for createfourpaws too. I saw a flower. what do I know? maybe I need more beer. lots of it. like a whole case to see things in a bright bold but sane way? me I have to get hootched to get sane go figure.

    go with what you have started. I may suprise you and like it more than you think. I am an outside the box kinda quilter.........I rarely follow some of the quilting rules.....i put colors together that people say will never work and in the end they do work.
