I like the idea of maybe two smaller triangles inside. Your mini is beautiful! It will look so sweet in the little girls room!

well, lets hope it will be the first granddaughter (will also gladly welcome the fourth grandson :lol: )

I HAD to quilt one patch and I think I will go by the suggestion to make triangles on the background fabric. Anything else might get lost at that scale.

DH told me to finally keep my fingers off the doll quilt otherwise it might be finished before we even start on our vacationtrip :lol:
