“Happiness is the object and design of our existence; and will be the end thereof, if we pursue the path that leads to it;
and this path is virtue, uprightness, faithfulness, holiness, and keeping all the commandments of God.”
Joseph Smith

Doll quilt

This Christmas, Bryn asked Santa Claus for a doll bed. She received a piece of foam and some pieces of flannel. This is what she envisioned and I worked on. It is done, and hopefully will still be around when she has a daughter. She said it is for Emily, the Cabbage patch doll who was mine and came home with us from Wyoming this summer.

The photo doesn't show the back, but it is the same green color as the petals on the flowers, which has a tie-dyed effect to it. The binding is the same color pink as the center of the middle flower.


This close up is to show the blanket stitch on the appliqued flower.
New skills: applique, blanket stitch
