As you know, I'm pretty stoked to participate in the next round of doll quilt swappin'.
The above is a little teaser of the center block I'm working on for the project. I know you aren't supposed to show the entire thing so that it's a surprise and all that good stuff...so this is just a tease.
I'm going for a vintage retro feel that my partner really likes. I hope that she enjoys the final product.
You know I just cannot resist doing a bunch of hand work, and applique is my addiction...so I guess no surprise what techniques I'm using.
Dropping my idea of using Japanese fabrics in order to fit the request of my partner, but I think that it will really look cool. The pattern itself is from the cover of a Japanese book, Patchwork Lesson #9.
Oh, and to answer your question on the cathedral windows...yes, of course they are by hand! Quilt Otaku would settle for nothing less! ;)

Neat - thanks for the tease... :o)
I too am intrigued by your doll quilt. Really like the rising sun.
So exciting.
It would have been nice to swap doll-quilts but I didn't sign me in so.....
Follow your creation with joy.

It looks lovely so far... Can't wait to see what it becomes!
Your doll quilt tease looks great! So far all of your posts have a link for me to go somewhere to buy something. You're a regular saleswoman here!
