    I have some wall space in my sewing room but haven't decided yet....started with the idea I would get a baby doll and donate quilt and doll to toys/tots but don't know if I want to part with it. My ONLY GGD has lots from daughter hand quilted yet. She doesn't need them LOL

    I hang mine in my sewing room and also plan on displaying some in my doll bed that my dad made for me when I was a little girl (probably 6 yrs old or so). It is old. I need to refinish it first. Probaly just some paint. Now that I am retired I may have time for those fun things.I bought a porcelain doll about 20 years ago that is dressed in a white christening gown and I have also made a lot of small cloth dolls. My room with the computer has a teddy bear, doll theme. I must be reverting back to my childhood days. My granddaughters love the room. They are 5 and 11. They know which ones they can play with.

    Right now mine are just laying on a dresser so I can pet them when I walk by. Once we move, I'll hang them on the room that will be my sewing room. I'd hang them now, but with cement walls in this house, it's kind of hard. Not putting holes in the walls or marking up the walls because I rent from the landlords from hell.

    I made 24 doll quilts for the church bazaar. Only 6 of them sold, so I brought them home and gave them to my cats.

    Cement walls??? Why not use some of those 'Command strips', you know the ones that 'are there when you want them, and gone when you don't.' Then you can use them where you want them.
