It's doll quilt swap time!
Who out there is participating in DQS9? Me too! The first time I signed up, I really didn't know what to expect, if I would like it or not.
What I'm finding out though, is that I absolutely love participating! It has given me a chance to be creative on a new level and try things I might not otherwise try.
So here's my quilt so far. It's called "walking the hedgie". And that's triangle lady there. I have a few ideas up my sleeve for finishing it off. I hope it turns out as good as it looks in my head!
~Penny
p.s. you can find the hedgie paper piecing pattern here, and the triangle lady and shoe are patterns made by me!
That is too stinkin' cute!!!!! LOVE your hedgie!

So cute!
I have been wanting to join this swap. But it makes me nervous that I won't think up a cool enough quilt for my partner! :)

Uh, woah! That is way super cosmic cool. I love how you threw in a couple of mismatched triangles around the border!

I totally blame/praise you for my recent paper piecing foray. Goodness, those patterns are darling. And you made that hedgie one sing! Triangle girl and shoe are adorable too. Can't wait to see how you finish this cute quilt. Carry on! LOL!
