pretty dang proud





So I LOVE the fabrics I found for this blanket. Since I don't quilt it- it's not a quilt- I haven't gotten that far in my skill set yet. But I do piece together the top. I got this "pattern" from a Joann's kit and I have used it many times now. It is the best for me since I don't have to match any corners. I haven't figured out how to cut or sew straight yet either. :) I made this for my nephew Nathan. I have enough fabric to make one for Asher too :) Sorry the photos aren't better- one more thing to work on... :) The blanket is 30x36 and I will "stitch in the ditch" to help it keep it's shape. The circle fabric is on the back. Kaden loves to name the colors of the different "ants" on the alien fabric. I just love it...

  1. These are wonderful Danielle! I love the fabrics too! Please e-mail me your addy. I forgot to write it down off of the box you sent me before the box went to the recyclers. Take care.
    Hugs,

  2. You should be pretty dang proud because that's pretty dang cute! If you keep this up you might have a full-blown addiction coming your way...but be warned...it's expensive and painful - because there are ALWAYS new fabrics to buy!!! Truly, I love it and now I want to know what's next?! Oh, Google/Blogger only lets me sign in with my dog's blog...sorry...!xoxo, Nan
