Grace has been busy over here whipping up more petite confections.
These tiny cupcakes, fresh from the dollhouse bakery, are for Jenny (Everyday is a Holiday).
They are the teeniest cupcakes ever! I can't even fathom this, and yet here they are. Each one is about the size of a blueberry, the platter an inch-and-a-half in diameter.
They'll be on their way soon. Right after I stop drooling and staring at them.
And another doll quilt. This one is 12" x 12". I'm really fond of this simple block pattern and strip-piecing in general.
The embroidered bunny is from this old pattern set.
Vicki, I have been quilting for over 25 years, yet find myself absolutely enamored of your quilts! It is precisely because you use fabrics with white backgrounds that they look so fresh and cheerful. I agree, they are hard to find. The 1930's prints, feedsack reproductions and even some of the "retro" 1950's are probably your best bet. Inspired by your color schemes, I've rummaged through my stash to find only a handful of scraps with white in them. I've just started my blog but will have lots of posts with doll quilts. Please visit again. Fondly, Diane

The size of blueberries??? That is teenie! They are too adorable! I love the doll quilt. I just made my first one last week and it's such instant gratification.

I agree the flowers pop when they are on a white background. Your doll quilts and embroidery are enchanting. I want to learn more about the cupcakes and who's making them... guess I might find the answers in the archives.

Nope, not just you. Trying to find things on white backgrounds is difficult. But I love it when I can find it!

Those little cupcakes are adorable and I love the overall shot so you can get a sense of the scale.
The doll quilt is so adorable also.
Great stuff. Your pictures always make me smile and feel kind of Little House on the Prairieish.
