Doll Quilt from a Spoonflower Swatch

I purchased this rabbit fabric as an 8 inch swatch of “Hare in the Meadow Small” by Jill O’Connor from Spoonflower.com. I had thought I was going to put in the “Urban Allotment” quilt in my March 31, 2022 post as one of the “unexpected visitors” but as it turned out, I’d already pieced the quilt by the time my order arrived.

Too cute to not be used, I decided that the swatch was just like a fabric quilt panel. I could easily make a doll size quilt by just adding borders to the swatch.

And it just so happened, I had some borders left over from a quilt top I had just completed. All I needed to do was to piece 4 more 9 patch cornerstones!

I love how this little project came together! It’s the perfect size for a Hazel Village rag doll. Hazel Village is best known for their forest animals but they do have a small collection of rag dolls. This is Louise, definitely my favorite of the bunch! Though Jules is really cute too!

I definitely would consider purchasing a Spoonflower swatch in the future, just to make a doll quilt.
