The international on-line community of quilters
never ceases to astound me.
Bernie's 'Spread the Love' campaign
has been an amazing success,
and I have no doubt that Amy is
overwhelmed with doll quilts to augment 'A Doll Like Me'.
For stats and an update,
please take a moment to visit Bernie's latest post.
I think you'll be astounded, too!
I am proud to be a participant,
and, as I declared in my New Year's post,
my intentions are to use my scraps as I generate them,
so I see this as a perpetual project.
From my scrappy Tilda Fabric corners,
after making Sweet Reminiscence

for the blog hop, I fashioned this sweet pinwheel quilt.
I included some of the larger scraps for doll clothes,
and slipped it into yesterday's mail to
On my recent visit to North Texas,
my quilter friend generously donated some already made 3" blocks
Since I couldn't wait to get my hands on them,
I whipped up a second doll quilt that would be suitable
to accompany a boy doll.

Again and again,
when the word gets out,
quilter's respond!
Amy of A Doll Like Me should be all set for awhile!
Way to go, Bernie!!!

Thank you Karen - for sewing these sweet doll quilts and for your kind thoughts on this project. I am so happy to have you as a friend. :-)
These are just so cute. I had seen your sweet confection of pinwheels on Instagram, but this little nine-patch number is wonderful, too. Isn't it amazing how quilters just happen to have just the right thing for a quilt when it's needed? Your friend had the blocks in the perfect size for a top and you had the exact backing to match. It was meant to be!!
You are such a kind and generous soul, these doll quilts are just adorable and will be loved by the recipients for sure ❤💕
Two lovely doll quilts Karen, I love the girly pinwheels and the other is wonderful for a boy. Three sheets for this wonderful quilting community.

Great looking quilts. Great idea to make them from scraps. I'll have to keep that in mind when I'm cutting other projects.
These are delightful little doll quilts. Great cause to support!
SO exciting! You have many busy hands in your circle of friends. Your work is so excellent! The doll quilt is yummy!
These quilts are both very nice! I love seeing what everyone is doing for these causes.
What a wonderful project to support!! I love your doll quilts and they are sure to brighten someone’s day 💕
I should be so good....:) Love your pinwheel in the Tilda!
Cute little doll quilts! I love making doll quilts because they're quick and easy, and a great way to use up scraps. Your links didn't work on my computer, but I'm going to try to find out more info on this project, if it's not too late.
Those are just lovely little quilts and will be so loved.
Your doll quilts are so sweet, Karen! I was really moved by Bernie's report, too. So many good quilters out there, sharing the love :)

Beautiful quilts, Karen. I am partial to the turtles:-)
I agree with you - this will be a perpetual project...whenever we have a few scraps. Meaning Always!!!
Lovely little quilts! I like the idea of using up your scraps as you go along - definitely beats cramming them into a bag and then pretending they're not there.
Super cute mini quilts! I really love them both.
