Mine's finished! It's my first doll quilt, and I had a lot of fun making it.

Depends on the pattern. Could take you 40 hours if ya want to work that intricate or 4 hours if simple pattern. All depends on what you make. Mine usually take 20 hours straight when doing a patchwork with strong quilting. I did a miniature double wedding ring quilt that measured 7" x 8" and it took me 40 hours. Your choice of pattern depends on how long. Hope that helps.
