My favorite square in the quilt:
I made a dress out of this fabric, when I was around 21 or so, and I wore it to shreds. The fabric had wind-blown sheet music on it, and what made it special was that they were all hymns. I saved every single tiny scrap of this fabric, and I was very happy that I could include it in this dolly quilt!
For our daughter's first birthday we looked high and low for a doll. I didn't want a doll that did anything. Especially not one with a motion sensor in it! Those dolls give me the creeps in the store. We went to many stores before we found this nice baby doll:
There hasn't been much interest in the doll until recently so I thought it was high time the poor dolly had a blankie. :-) I cut out enough squares for another doll blanket and once it is finished, I plan on putting it in my Etsy shop.

Cute little blanket! When I was a little girl my grandma made me a blanket with a matching doll blanket. I still have them. :) I'm sure Baby Girl will get many hours of fun with hers! :)
That is so sweet!! I can see why that is you're favorite square!
It is hard to find a nice doll, isn't it!?!!
Cute quilt! Does Baby Girl like it? I enlarged the picture and looked at all your fabrics. The music one is great, especially that it's all hymns.
So much fun!! And every patch has a story that The Baby will love to hear when she is a bit bigger.
Love it! Can I put a hold on the blanket when you get it done? Sue
Ah thats so cute and sweet! Brings back lots of memories from when I was little:).
