Yeah! I finished this doll quilt in record time! I had so much fun making it that I couldn't stop. I really hope that my doll quilt swap mate likes it as much as my family and I do.
I wasn't sure how to quilt the stars, so at first I thought I would stitch in the ditch. That didn't look so good so I tried a swirl pattern and it worked great. The rest of the quilting is a meandering kind of flower, heart, leaf pattern. Small projects like these are great for practicing my machine quilting on. In an earlier post I had asked what your favorite function on your machine is and the free-motion stitch seemed to be the most popular. I like that function a lot also and that would have to be my second favorite.
I mailed it out today and it should arrive next week! I love getting something done, can you tell?

Yeah! I love it! It sure did get here fast. I love the 'swirlies' on the stars. I really like the colors and the dots. It is wonderful! I have to find it a special place now, lol. I will be sure to take pictures of it once I get it situated... hehehe Thanks for making me such a super little quilt.
