This is the first of 7 doll quilts I am wrapping up. Six of these are for a special order, and one for a precious little friend. With the order the request was made for 4 modern, 2 traditional quilts. I think this one could qualify as either. It is a rail fence design, but I made the middle section larger than the two side ones.
Isn't that middle bar fantastic? I'm not supposed to be buying fabric, but I fell in love and bought it in three colour ways. This one is my favourite.
With such a busy design I went for a simple loopy swirl to quilt it. Nothing fancy, nothing distracting.
All of the doll quilts have simple backs, no piecing on something so small. I sadly let go of this favourite Amy Butler for the back of this one. It's been used on more than three quilts I've made, plus one that was made for The Monster. It's time to move on.

Over the next week or so I will share all of the doll quilts, and hopefully a few other finished pieces (if Hubby will hold up the quilts in the freezing ass cold for me).
I love the colors and fabrics you used.
