Default Doll Crib Quilt

I was invited to my Sis-in-law's for dinner on Christmas at the last minute. I felt I had time to sew two market totes for them.... not. I was sewing the last 12" and broke a needle. Found a replacement and it threaded the first time. After finishing the seam, I saw that I'd sewn the handle to the back side! Ripped it out, finished the seam, and tied a ribbon around them as no time to wrap. Thread ends not trimmed. They loved them, but I didn't get a pic. While there, she told me they pulled her childhood doll crib, made by a family friend, from the attic. She planned to clean it up for her toddler grands to play with but needed a pad for the bottom. I said it needed a quilt. I made no promises. All the kiddos were coming to her house today for a late Christmas. I drove the 1/2 hour over with this quilt made yesterday so the little ones could play with it.
