    Question for those who have participated in a good number of the doll quilt swaps:
    Have you seen a doll quilt with a "changeable" component, like a panel or block that buttons on and can be removed? Because that is what I made this time! I love it so much I will need to make a second one to keep, and change the panel a few times a year.
    Can't show you all yet- need to have my partner get it and see it first! The changeable part is the size of a potholder, and it is quilted too!

    Wow, I like the idea of a changeable quilt top. Idea has a lot of potential.

    urgodschild2 - glad to "see" you on the board. Hope all is going as well as possible with your daughter.

    Jennie Penny - what a neat idea! I can't wait to see your little creation.

    As for making a large quilt from multiple small ones - there is a QAYG method that might work. It involves adding sashing between blocks that have already been quilted to their backs. It might be adaptable to go between two DQs without taking away from the original. I have seen it but never done it.
    Anyone who has more info about this method - please chime in.
