    Had to do something little because of all the minis posted here!?

    Could not do it any smaller without losing accuracy so I decided to make a doll quilt. Maybe the new grandchild will be a girl and mid octobre I will go for four weeks abroad and I have something to handquilt with me :lol:

    On the border I plan echo quilting and the background of the plates a grid. But what should I do on the white triangles? Dont like feathers for this one.
    Can I find some stencils online that I could print out in a smaller size?

    thanks for looking
    Granny

    finished size will be 19 x 25 inch

    big sister has to stay home

    Wow, that is so charming!
    Regardless of the size, it has a great layout and borders.
    Actually, I think they look even better in such a small scale.

    How tiny are those 9Patch cornerstones?
