For quilting I used a flower template I had in my closet. I like using templates for my quilting. They are easy to use. I love the way the darker binding gives the quilt a bolder look. It was a good choice for my quilt.
Now I need to wash the quilt to get that feel and look of an old well loved doll quilt.

Delightful as always - yesterday whilst making a birthday block I came across a 'huge' stack of triangles - the wee points left over from doing the flying geese border to the Round Robin quilt - so I should maybe get around to using them for a doll's quilt
It's very pretty Lucy. I love that old worn feeling too!
As usual, Lucy, your quilt is beautiful. Proficiaat !
i love it!!!!
Adorable as always !Love your work. kiss from France
Such a beautiful little quilt.
Hi Lucy, nice colours and great look !!! You're quilt is lovely which diameters is this one ??
Every time I see on a blog that someone has made a doll quilt, I tell myself to get busy and make one. Do I ever do it? Just too many other projects going. Yours turned out very good and I like it displayed on the cabinet. I like the cabinet, too!
Such a pretty quilt! And I love the way you present it. It looks old, and that is a complement to your use of colors. Thank you for sharing, and I want to make one, too....
What a wonderful little quilt. The colors are irresistible.
Such a sweet little quilt, love the colors.
Sweet!!
It looks lovely, that's quite a bit of quilting on this one so it should look great when it's washed.
Your doll quilt is so lovely! I admire the last picture in your post - you photograph and display your quilts like an artist.
Gorgeous, Lucy! It turned out so very well.
Lucy - such a charming little quilt! Your quilts are so simple, yet so beautiful, just like the authentic antiques. Louise
It turned out very sweet :c)

Although you had some reservations about this quilt in your previous post, I think it turned out really nice. I love it!
Nice to hear from you again Lucy! Just a wonderful small quilt! Lovely quilting too!
Very well done! I am hoping that you are feeling better. Enjoy September!
It is lovely, Lucy! Your hanquilting is exquisite!
Hi Lucy, lovely work as always. I can't tell for sure from the picture but did you quilt in the ditch in the windmill blocks and flowers in the plain? I'd love to know because I am just finishing a top using windmill/pinwheel and plain blocks and am wondering how I am going to quilt.
It is beautiful Lucy - love all your little quilts.
Lucy...your little quilts are simply darling. I always say that too...the quilting makes it come to life! Fantastic job girl!
Very lovely quilt, Lucy. I love the flower quilting.
Oh, my... I love the color combinations on this quilt. You have such an eye for colors!
A beautiful quilt, your pictures are super also. Thanks for sharing.

This is very charming. It is beautifully framed with the darker colour, and it makes me want to start a new little quilt... unfortunately now is NOT the right time !! Keep up the nice work.
Absolutely adorable!
Lucy, just lovely. I agree, hand quilting a small quilt really makes it come alive!
Olá amiga!
Passei para rever seu cantinho e as novidades.
Gosto muito do seu trabalho.
É muito criativo, lindo e alegre!...

All your quilts are so sweet and have "that" look of old and cozy to them which I love. I have a question about piecing small quilts such as these, do you sew them by the paper piecing method? I have seen some very small blocks that I think are so pretty but they use really small pieces. A friend suggested the paper piecing method. I thought perhaps when I visit a quilt shop that carries a lot of those tiny patterns I might try one and see if I like it. I too love the look that one has after it has been washed and dried.
Your doll quilt is very, very beautiful.
I love your charming doll quilt!!
Beautiful!
