The last time I was up to Mom's I took my sewing machine and a couple bags of 1 1/2" strips and Abby helped me make this doll blanket. I tried to teach her "warm" and "cool" colors and she seemed to be catching on pretty good. I finished sewing the binding on this morning so that Mom can take it back to her this weekend. I only had red hand quilting thread with me so that is what I used. It's machine pieced but hand quilted and bound. I think she will enjoy it for many years.
