I haven't had much time to quilt lately, but I made this doll quilt for an exchange with a friend. I called it "Rain or Shine" because that is just the type of friend she is, there through it all.
It's made in her favorite colors. It's my first try at more traditional quilt binding, and only my second quilt (my first one was all hand stitched and hand quilted) this one is machine assembled, hand quilted, and the embroidery patches and yo-yo are hand appliquéd. I had never made a yo-yo but decided to give the heart-shaped one a try and it worked!
I am now a little bit hooked on these small quilts! I've already got a few others planned.

I added those thongs/flip flops to the design because my friend likes those. I think her favorite colors played well together, and the little quilt was so much fun to make! :)
