Oksewglad, you said exactly what I thought about Boop56's doll crib. I love the suggestions you gave for little quilts. I completely agree.
Boop56, I hope you will post photos when you make some quilts for it.
I also was thinking that a little stuffed mattress made out of blue ticking fabric stuffed with dryer lint and then tucked with small buttons would be cute too. Course, you could make a pillow that way too and then a cute quilted pillowcase for it. Wow, lots of possibilities. :-D See, we are all just little girls inside, wanting to play again! :-D

1. Crazy, Victorian with lots of handstitching.
2. Simple 9 patch out of shirtings.
3. A broderie perse style.
4. A scrappy using 30's prints--high lighting pinks, yellows, a touch of blue, green, and lavender off set with light colored muslin.--small Dresden plate maybe
5. An Amish style bars quilt using red and blue with the black.
Okay when are you going to start?
Actually the first one that came to mind was one like this.

The quilts from this swap are wonderful, love the doll beds! kysmommy2 should receive her quilt by next Wednesday, I mailed it off this week. I haven't heard from her since the swap began, I pm'd her but haven't heard anything yet. Hope everything is okay.
