Quilt Challenge #2

For our second quilt challenge, Mom Wenzel challenged us way outside our comfort zone with creating a 'Mojo Doll' rather than a pieced quilt. Here are the results.

The specifics of the challenge:

  • Create your own Mojo Doll - a personal good luck charm
  • I found this in Quilter's Home Magazine; they are having a contest and I thought it would be fun
  • Cut out the pattern and start slapping it together. Include items or ideas of what is important to you; wishes, dreams, etc. Just have fun and make it your own.
  • If you choose, add a few comments of what and why.

Mom Wenzel's Mojo Doll
'My Mojo is about me: wrinkles, pearls, obsessed with ribbons (hair), love for my family (heart), love to stitch (thimble earrings), and check out the bling!

My wishes: thin waist and big hair
On my 'cape of hopes': to keep making quilts, remain mobile, get better at computer skills and become an art quilter.'








Heather's Mojo Doll
For mine, I wanted to incorporate all the fabrics that I love the most, plus give her big fat braided hair, which I have always wanted.
