DQS5

I have decided that this will be my quilt for Doll Quilt Swap 5, unless I change my mind because I am not happy with the quilting. My plan is to do this vine pattern for the quilting:

Now mind you, I will not be using black thread for the actual quilting, I just did it to see how the virtual design in my head looked in thread! I am thinking I will use a tan/off white/ecru thread for the quilting as it will be in the neutral stripes of the quilt. If I think it needs more quilting then I will do the same vines in the print stripes using a darker thread. If the vines go well on the little quilt I will use them for the bigger log cabin quilt also so those could be done this week if time allows.

I sandwiched this little quilt along with the bigger log cabin and my SFRR2 quilt yesterday. I got started hand quilting the SFRR2 quilt and it is going quite well. I hope to be done with that one this week.
