Wall of Doll Quilts


A friend of mine asked me what I was going to do with all the doll quilts I was making. I showed her this photo and told her this was my goal. The photo is from the book Collecting American Country.

Did she think you were nuts? My sister thinks I'm nuts for making lots of quilts. The latest comment is that I am going to become a quilt hoarder! I would love a wall like that too!

My friend is a quilter who makes full sized quilts. When I showed her the photo, she thought this was a great idea. I have made hundreds of quilts in the past 30+ years, and have dozens of unquilted tops, many made by my husband's great-aunt. And, of course, I continue to make full sized quilts too. I am obsessed. In a good way, of course! :-)
