    My friend has an adorable doll house that she made herself, including all the furniture. I surprised her with a quilt for her birthday yesterday, and I guessed perfectly on the correct size! It used the Boston Blocks method shown here by Rhonda. Each block is 1" square.

    6X7"

    That wooden pillow may be too hard for some.

    That is too cute. That pillow leaves a lot to be desired though.

    I have a friend that builds dollhouses and reupholsters furniture and dresses beds. She does some pretty awesome work. www.debsminis.com She doesn't make quilts for the beds but she does make tiny pillows and does silk ribbon embroidery on them.

    Sara, If you want, you can surprise her again. And if you want, I would like to braid a miniature rug for the doll house. What do you think? Suz

    I have a dollhouse too, and I make my pillows. I fill them (not overfull) with salt, just enough so that you can make a dent in them to look as if someone has put their head in the middle. Your quilt looks great on that bed.
