Here's the beginnings of my doll quilt for the Doll Quilt Swap #5. I decided not to use that particular striped fabric although I loved it, because in my haste I cut it wrong. I wanted the stripes to radiate out from the center. I used a different fabric and I think that I actually like it better. Pictures coming soon. I really hope that my swap partner will like my color choice. She said earth tones and I have always interepted earth tones this way. You know, blues, greens, some shades of browns and reds and oranges.

This sweet little felted wool and emboidered heart is for a swap that I signed up for through a site called swap-bot.com . I hope that she'll like it. I really like it and would happily keep it for myself; that's how I gage how good something is that I've made.
