I first heard of Blabla dolls once my friends starting
having children and receiving them as gifts for their babies. I actually just bought one for my
niece this year – Colette the Cat. They are a little pricey*, but oh so
adorable. One of the things I love most are the color combinations – a little
unexpected, cute but still sophisticated. I think they would be fabulous in a
quilt. I spent some time with the Kona fabric card and matched up my favorite
dolls with color swatches. I’m going to try and do this more often when I see
other color combos I like (and hopefully post here as well). It’s always nice
to have a little inspiration before starting a new project!
*If you don’t want to spend the money to purchase a doll, they have miniature versions as finger puppets. Much more affordable, and just as cute!
