April 27 ~ Quilt of the Day
Doll Quilt by Helen, Patchy Work of Mini Grey
Helen wrote about this 21″ square doll quilt in several posts on her blog. She based the design off of this free pattern and writes, “I altered it a bit, made the background all one color, and put in two circles…” This is one of two similar doll quilts Helen created for Doll Quilt Swap.
