Finished blanket |
I love making these receiving blankets as gifts. I have been told they are a great size to wrap up a newborn and also make a great blanket to place on the floor for tummy time.
I have made many of these for charity also. I buy two 1 1/4 yard pieces of flannel and wash them in hot water and dry in a hot dryer. That shrinks the flannel and makes it soft while removing any chemicals.
Baby stats |
When I make them for a newborn, I include all their stats, one in each corner of the blanket and then I place their name in the middle. I love to find the right fabrics to mix and match when making these.
Name |
I also make them for shower presents but obviously without the embroidery. I will make them in a gender neutral color scheme unless the parents know the sex of the baby. If you would like one of these, just contact me at celeste@sewmuchfun.biz.
