Hair-do




On your left : the 4-leaf clover-style folded-fabric hair-thingie that I made for DD. She's fairly happy with it ... but would have preferred it to be black with sculls on it.
And yes, it is DD who's modelling it, and yes, she said she had brushed her hair "really well" , and no, she hadn't, and the revenge of the Mother is, to put a picture of it, here, on the 'net, for everyone to see !!!





And on your right :
the progress of the doll-quilt-quilting.
It doesn't show well on this picture, but there are diagonal quilting-lines running the other way too, making the quilting a sort-of cross-hatching ... with very, VERY wide spaces between.
And - as always - I'm amazed at how invisible a light quilting-thread becomes once its in a quilt. Well, naturally it does show, does so on the light fabrics too, but its not conspicuous, even on the really dark fabrics.

I love the doll quilt. What a smart idea to applique at the intersections.
