I have 3 different styles of doll quilts today.
The first is a strippy doll quilt. It was fun to make just grabbing fabrics that looked like they would work together. I handquilted it in a cross hatch pattern.
Next up is a little doll quilt I made out of squares that were sent to me in a doll quilt swap. Once again I practiced doing a scalloped border. This one was handquilted also.
I made a quilt in solids using a Gwen Marston liberated technique. These were my leftovers so I decided to make a little liberated quilt; the quilting is done by hand and they are free form fans.

Your free form fans look like they are perfectly scaled for that sweet doll quilt.
Wonderful doll quilts. I especially love the amish styled one - thanks for sharing them!
Love your little quilts - one and all. Your freehand fans look so good on the liberated piece. I'm giddy; I love doll quilts!
These are truly inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing them with us. I like things about all of them.
I really like the doll quilt made with the solid fabrics!
Ooooo - the gwen marston liberated one is my FAVORITE! And your free form fans are so good! The one time I tried it was a disaster! You would laugh if you saw them!
