    Does any one here do dollhouse miniature quilts? That is what got me started in all this. I would love to make some and want to see all the pictures I can.

    I've made one, 1/12th scale, for a four poster, hence the cut outs at the bottom. The hex's were English Paper Pieced, and hand stitched, with some fussy cutting.

    Oh that is amazing. My dollhouse people would be so thrilled if I learn to do that. I found a 1/12 scale quilting frame on ebay. I am going to try to make a frame like it. Just in case I am able to make them a quilt.

    That is great! Thanks too, for letting me know that there is a way to make a quilt that has to adapt for corners :)

    I made one for my doll house. I just did a teeny 9 patch. I don't have a picture though and right now I don't know where my camera battery charger is and the doll house is still packed.
