Here is a little quilt that I am working on from Childhood Treasures by Merikay Waldvogel. It has lots and lots of doll quilts from the collection of Mary Ghormley. It is a great book to own. There are many quilts in it that I would like to make for my collection.
The quilt has 19 bars. I cut out the strips to make the quilt a few days ago. I had been setting aside fabrics that had a similar look. I am thinking that the four dark bars are not quite right. I didn't really notice until I saw them in this photograph. Anyway, I am stitching it by hand like the one in the book. I have seven bars together already. The others are just sitting in order waiting to be added. This is another handwork project that I stitch in the evening. Hmmm, now I am really thinking of looking for a different fabric in my stash. Let me see what I can come up with.
Happy stitching,
Bobbie
Thats a great little quilt. Your strips are looking a lot like the old one.
