2003 Doll Collection

2003 Doll Collection

Obviously these are not quilts, but a collection of some of the cloth dolls I have made over the years. The sewing machine is like the one I sewed on until my senior year in college when I was able to buy a second-hand portable singer for $50.00. Unfortunately, this is not the one I learned on because my mama gave that one away when she bought an electric machine.

2003 Wanda  60 X 60

I made this pictorial quilt as a Christmas gift for Wanda Alice Hubbard Pleasants.
