Itty Bitty Quilt

It’s too hot to dye!

So I’ve been playing with my sewing machine, which happens to be parked right in front of the wall A/C unit. I was trying some new quilting techniques on this little doll quilt… I used a free online tute and the scraps were a little surprise from Giselle (thank you, Giselle!!!). So in the spirt of keeping things fun, it’s available free for shipping in my hyena cart shop… ends Wednesday!

The front is pieced from exclusive girasol scraps and the back is a fish print cotton batik. Inside is thin cotton batting. Perfect for putting dollies to bed… or a little lovey for a sweet little girl. It measures approximately 17 inches square.
