Cheddar Cheese & Crackers doll quilt

Just to let you know, I do have a quilting life outside of string quilts. Last month I made this "Cheddar Crackers & Cheese" doll quilt from Lori's instructions on her blog, Humble Quilts. If you go to her blog, you can see the vintage full size quilt in this design and other versions of the doll quilt.

The fabrics in my quilt are all Jo Morton. I like small quilts, easier to finish and I like their charm. This quilt is about 25 inches square and the little squares measure 1 inch.

Here's a photo before I started hand quilting it. Sorry about the quality of the photo, the fabrics are just not showing very well. Click on the photo for a better look. Lots of intersections to quilt through and some of the quilting will only be 1/2 inch apart (on the cheddar blocks). This may take me awhile!

Your quilt is charming, indeed. I like the Jo Morton fabrics and even used a few of them in my version.
