My cute little niece, N, turned 3 last week. I've wanted to make her a little doll quilt ever since her little brother was born last fall. When I saw this quilt by Amy I knew I wanted to copy pay homage immediately.
I made a crib-size quilt for this niece a couple of years ago out of the fabrics I used for the red, aqua and pink quilt I made for my daughter. (I think I've made 11-12 quilts out of those fabrics.) As a result I have a lovely This quilt is not for a doll, but for N's favorite friend, Piggy. Here is Piggy enjoying her (his?) new quilt. N quite loves piggys. Her favorite show is Peppa Pig (which could possibly be one of my new favorites - I just love hearing the Britishisms and British accents. Maybe I can teach my kids to talk like that.)
And since the quilt was for Piggy, I figured it needed some piggys on the quilt. Aren't those cute little Japanese piggys?
And Piggy seems quite cozy wither her new quilt. I think I need to make more of these.

ReplyDeleteIs that a pig peeking out of the window on the top right house? This would be a fun quilt to do with my daughter. She's 5 and loves to play with all my scraps. She'd have great fun picking out the fabrics for the houses and roofs. It might be fun to do a "my" and a "her" version. Hmmm. Thanks for the continued inspiration!

ReplyDeleteSo cute! My nieces are not into dolls, but dogs instead. Piggy reminds me of their puppy "lovies." I am new to quilting and have been wanting to make them quilts for their beds, but you have inspired me to start with puppy quilts.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your great ideas. --Becky C.
What a wonderful doll quilt or rather piggy quilt! I have all boys, so no dolls around my house when they were growing up. However, my oldest had a favorite stuffed raccoon, named Rocky. I made a little doll quilt for Rocky--but it was not nearly as sweet as this!!

ReplyDeleteI love the little quilt. Peppa Pig is my daughters favorite show and she is watching it right now while eating her lunch, giving me a few moments to slip away onto the computer.
ReplyDeleteWell gosh. How cute is that. Love everything about it. Love the sweet little piggy too.
ReplyDeleteI've been wondering what color to add with my red and aquas to make a quilt and I think you've just solidified it for me - pink. So cute. Thanks for the inspiration!
