Finished my doll quilt!

I finished sewing down the binding and now my doll quilt for Doll Quilt Swap 4 is ready to be sent! I'm so excited, and very nervous! I really hope my swap-partner likes it!

I used an Amy Butler print as backing, I think it matches the top very well! It will go out on monday....

EDIT: I forgot! I went on my second run today....Can't wait until it starts getting easier. LOL!

    Of course she will love it - how can she not? I really like those freestyle stars, I must try them sometime
    Keep up with the running - you are amazing! A student, a mum, a quilter and now a runner too - I feel exhausted just thinking about it LOL

    I love your little quilt! Great that you are running now. Rainy here today, so I stayed in the house and did all "MUSTs".

    That doll quilt is SSSOOOO pretty! I love the crazy stars, too.

    Running doesn't get easy until about the 9th run, but then...it becomes fun and relaxing!

    Your wonky stars are growing on me. They look good! And I love the backing; it's so very perfect. Your swap partner is sure to love it, too. Congrats on the running; you are allowed to stop and walk when you get tired, you know. ;>}

    I absolutely love the quilt. The backing, is of course perfect.

    And you must let me know if the running gets any easier. I haven't started yet, because I'm sure it won't get any easier if I do!

    Cheers!

    What an awesome doll quilt! The backing is the perfect compliment. Thanks for visiting my blog - I hope we can both get to the place where running is "easier"! :)

    I love it, Tine! Especially the quilt backing. I have that same fabric for the backing on Sydney's Christmas stocking : )
