I only used some scraps to make a blanket for my daughters doll, dolly approves.

We made baby blankets to donate to a hospital. My children and I are making a baby blanket for a very close friend.

One of my grandchildren has a fleece tied blanket and it's just the warmest little thing. I'm kind of with you on the actual making of one but what a great starter project for young crafters!

I also made one to keep in the van as an "emergency blanket" or for when I can't go warm it up prior to loading up all the kids. Then I just throw the blanket over 3 carseats!<br />I did just make one for my friend's daughter who is 3 yrs. old. I used pink bandana horse print for the top and red hankercheif pattern for the bottom. To personalize it I cut an "S" out of white fleece and sewed it on one side of fleece and embroidered flowers on the S... it added a lot to the country girl blankie. =)<br />Love your print selection!RaisingCropsAndBabieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01897154924425187493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2611352990646835361.post-23666178512174232102012-01-25T14:25:59.699-07:002012-01-25T14:25:59.699-07:00My moms' club makes them for Project Linus (my...My moms' club makes them for Project Linus (my kids love the two they were given by family friends, so I know other children* would as well).

I almost thought it was more time consuming than sewing one because of all the cutting. My MIL made my husband one before we were married and it's actually a really great blanket to cuddle up with around the campfire. LOVE the red and blue combo. You're totally right.......it's hard to find pretty fleece, but you did :)<br /><br />Talk soon,<br />LindsayAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08107081837307020185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2611352990646835361.post-77261303086457091862012-01-25T06:50:22.670-07:002012-01-25T06:50:22.670-07:00The blue batik and red polka dot is a great combin...The blue batik and red polka dot is a great combination, lovely.<br /><br />You're so lucky to have your maternal grandparents, it must be wonderful and a joy for your children to have great-grandparents. I lost all of my grandparents by the time I was 8. I love the fact my husband still has his maternal grandparents and my son has 2 great grandparents (and he will meet them in about 4 months' time, we're going to travel from England to Australia for his first b'day... not looking forward to that flight!)<br /><br />I'm going to find a tutorial for this blanket, as a no sew project is exactly what I can do.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing, ChristineCBHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167559999402486170noreply@blogger.com
