Christine has been hosting a doll quilt swap with two rounds. I jumped right in and thought about it later and boy oh boy, who knew that I'd like doing it so much. Now I get to show off what I got in the mail from my swap partner Barb.
The quilt was inside this project envelope, I thought that was cool, I love the retro cherry fabric and the ric rac.
If you haven't seen what I sent in exchange on Barb's blog, here it is and you can see much better photos on her blog here. I really am quite envious of the antique doll bed she has. This basket quilt has two inch blocks in case you were wondering.
Here's a real doll in a bigger quilt. That's my nearly two year old step granddaughter Beth playing at my house. I can never catch her not pulling a funny face when I bring the camera out. She really is so sweet and a bit shy.

Your Granddaughter is a cutie pie.
Both of the quilts are gorgeous. I really like your red and white and can't wait to see the quilts in NY. Your real life "doll" looks adorable wrapped in the quilt!
Sweet doll quilts given and received. Your basket quilt looks perfect on the little doll bed. However the cutest doll of all is the one in the last photo!
What a cute idea to give a quilt in its own little bag/envelope. What a dear little quilt and the quilt you made for Barb is just divine!
Janet both quilts are stunning and so is the little one

I should mention that the fabrib "envelope" was given to me by my friend, Diane, of Persnickety. I received a book in it. It's been in my "pass along the fun" file for the right occasion and this swap was the perfect one.
