So off I went searching on the net for some inspirations, came across this zig zag tutorial, thought it's perfect, purchased some fabrics, and made this in a few hours.
What do you think? I didn't measured it, but I think it's about 12" x 15".
The tutorial is from AmandaJean at Crazy Mom Quilts. I think it's simply genius! don't you think so too? A zig zag quilt WITHOUT sewing any triangles. It's strip pieced and cut into squares. It's all in the layout of the blocks that formed the zigzag.Of course, I have to make a doll-sized quilt, so I started out with smaller width of strips... 1-1/2". I see future quilts with this pattern but big, sleep under, wrap around, cozy kinda quilts. :0)

Thanks a lot for the tutorial which would have helped me : yesterday I finished adding a zig zag to one of my quilts. I keep it preciously for next time.
Your doll quilt is beautiful.
Hello from Belgium.
I also saw this on AmandaJean's blog and thought it was ingenious!! Yours looks wonderful. I must try it.
Oh, forgot to ask, what are your doxies' names?
What a great way to make zig zags so much easier that the diagonal seems.
I love that pattern. I've decided it is going to be my next project.
Please come visit my blog...I added new pics of Nico, my doxie!!
