Doll Quilts
Does anyone sell doll quilts. I received a very special baby doll from a friend in Tennessee, and she needs a quilt. I am a very amature beginner in the quilting world, not to mention since this broken ankle surgery my patience is very short.Thank you

Hi Chrissy,
Doll quilts are easy to make as they are small enough to finish in a couple of days depending on how you quilt it. I did some a few years ago and one I hand quilted because I wanted the pratice. I am sure you could make one. Depending on the size of the doll you could use a baby quilt pattern.
So sorry you have a broken ankle. I'm sure your patience will return soon.

AFTER I sent this I saw a thread 'Doll Quilt' by redsaltbox. Check the picture. She made a nice doll quilt.

A quilted placemat from Target or Cracker Barrel with scalloped borders is only around $3.00. They are the same size as a doll quilt, Amie
