As requested, a place for us to ask for help and advice from other stitchers and to show the things we make.
Over to you.:-D

Morning girls.:-D What a happy quilt! Some quilts make you happy to look at them & that one does it for me.:-) I love it.
Merlin you know you won't be able to live with the pillowcase if two same squares are together! Amish quote or not! :^O
The V&A book sounds good. I will have a lok at it when I go to the exhibition.:-) Do show the rag doll picture. People seem to be using Photobucket ok now.

Thanks Maggie

Will take pics later.

I'd love to go to that exhibition - trying to persuade a friend to come with me.

BTW tinypic is so much quicker than PB - am a convert :)

Planning to move in with b/f in April,, I shall be 'inactif' so will have time for sewing and gardening.. really looking forward to it.

I am giving my Brother machine to my daughter, nothing wrong with it, its ideal for a 'beginner'. I am thinking of trying something crafty, have been looking at the patterns for dog coats and bags to make.

Sounds good.Hope it all goes well for you. Will you still be on the boards?

I love creating things but I'm impatient and want them done quickly. That's why I'm doing smaller items.
Also the skill level for a full sized quilt is a bit beyond me LOL

Will leave the future owner of the pink one to decide on her name (is a pressie for my nieces 7th birthday).

Suggestions for the green one?

if you are going to be making them regularly
why not pick a theme for their names

flowers?
herbs?
sweeties?

they are really nice
they are PROPER dollies to me

Hadn't given name much thought tbh - suppose I assumed their owners would prefer to decide.

Am thinking as they will be coloured themed to refer to them as Rainbow ragdolls.
