Dolly Dress Up #1 for Dustin Hansen's daughter

 I have several Dolly Dress Up panels.  I have been wondering how to use them.  I recently bought a book titled  Circle of Nine.  The concept is a design using 9 blocks.  I used the basic concept, but as usual changed the pattern somewhat to fit my blocks.  My blocks were 9 inchs and the pattern used 12 inch blocks.  I just loved the circular design of this quilt where a circle of blocks goes around a center block.  It is a nice change from sashing.  If you click on the photo you will be able to see my quilting.

 Here is a closeup of my quilting.  Since there were lots of daisies in the dresses I chose to quilt some daisies in the spacer blocks.  The corner quilting is part of a stencil I have. 

I used the three remaining dresses on the back.  Click on the photo to see a closeup of the quilting on the back.  You can also see a small label in the right bottom corner.

I have been given a new calling in our church. The women's group has asked me and another sister to make quilts for the new born babies. We only have 3 or 4 babies born a year in our congregation. At first I wasn't to excited about it, but I remembered that someone in the church had made quilts for me and now it was my turn to make quilts for the young ladies. This quilt is the first of my Relief Society quilts. I love it so much that it will be hard to give up. I have hung it on my wall so that I can enjoy it a few months before the baby is born in April. This quilt is for the Hansens.
