If I ever dress a tiny doll again, I'll squash her waist in so much she looks like an ant! My doll is not the prettiest debutante at the ball, she's one of the chaperones! But she's one of the most attractive chaperones.

Sandra, She's absolutely gorgeous! The detail you managed to capture in your photos is amazing, too.
Sorcha, Your wolf looks great. I'm not sure what the size is, will it be a wall hanging?

DAMN this embroidery floss I just bought! Has anyone ever had a whole skein with a flaw in it? I swear this does!

Pic too large again. Not a lot of progress today, too much else to do. Add one more black 'spot', fill in the white on the ears and he's ready to quilt. I 'want' to do snowflakes on the blue but they will have to be SO small I'm not sure I can. Wulfie will be quilted in black and grey thread to simulate 'hairs'. www.flickr.com/photos/sorchapics/4379494925/Have a question too. Fold the blue to the back, or bring the black backing over to the front for another black border?

If you have a narrow black border it could look good. I have finished a couple of bags, one for me and one as a gift. I have put pics on my blog bronzewombat.blogspot.com/ The Maple Leaf one is mine, the flower bag further down was a gift, but a friend has asked me to make her one too.

Sandra, those just might work! Thank you! No, I think beads/sequins would just be too 'tacky'.
