Amish Garden

IMG_1068

Taryn over at Reproduction and Antique Quilt Lover blog is hosting a cheddar give away. She is asking bloggers to post a pic of a favorite doll size quilt. I have made a few over the years, but this little amish quilt has to be my favorite. So if you are a miniature or doll quilt lover and want a chance to win some solid cheddar fabric go over and link up with her blog.  There is still a lot of space available on my mini wall and I think my Amish Garden would love being next to a cheddar mini.

  2. Wonderful! Love the quilting in the border. Is it done by hand?

    1. Yes it is! My only regret is I didn't complete the grid all the way out to the edge. I learn something new with every quilt I do.

    1. Thanks so much, the quilting is the reason I make quilt, it is cheaper than therpy. I hear that hand quilting is making a comeback, I sure hope so since I think today's world could learn much from it.

  4. The feathered border is so lovely - what a sweet little quilt! I am handquilting a large piece now and have been frustrated trying to find good quality hand quilting threads in my area. Ended up going online. It seems as though all the thread is for machine quilting these days.

    1. I agree, I love YLI but have to purchase it online. I guess we just don't use the products fast enough to warrent the shops to carry it. We need to get more people hand quilting.
