I think this is
ticker tape doll quilt #5 for me. Each time, I use a different color scheme, and this time I chose a rainbow in an effort to revisit the joy of
this quilt. I also tried two new techniques, which I will definitely use on #6 and following, if I feel the urge to ticker tape again.
First up, spray basting. It just makes sense, and it's so easy to do on small quilts. No pins means easy placement of all those little scraps. Why didn't I try this sooner?
And speaking of those little scraps, my second tip is to use a glue stick to place them where you want them temporarily. It washes right out, and again, no pins!
The back is Kona grass, and the binding is Kona lagoon. It finishes at 18 x 23.

I love a ticker tape quilt- seriously one of my favs. I made a doll size one for my daughter for Christmas last year and am itching to make more. You are quite inspiring!
So cute! I'm going to have to try one of those someday...
I love ticker tape quilts, and yours is so pretty!
This quilt is beautiful!!
Thank you for the tips, especially the glue stick. Have a ticker-tape quilt project planned for the kiddo's preschool this fall - happy to know the littles can use glue to attach their fabric bits!
So, so, SO adorable!
I love your ticker tape quilt !
