The Blanket Is Done!

I am happy to announce that I finished Anna’s blanket today. A while ago I decided that with each of my kids I wanted them to have a cute stuffed animal and their own special blanket. We bought the cute purple bunny quiet a while ago. Then I had the great ah-ha that I wanted to make a blanket to match the bunny. I found a pattern for a blanket that I really liked. I went to countless fabric stores looking for cute material that would match the bunny. Once I had the material, with the help of Emily my very talented creative sister-in-law, we came up with the color pattern for the blanket. Now after many hours of sewing, TA-DA! I think it turned out really cute. Now the bunny has a blanket and all the bunny and the blanket need is a baby. Now we are on to the next project. Let’s see how many “Anna” projects I can finish in the next 2 ½ weeks. Wish me luck!

You actually had the blanket quilted-I can see the quilted flower design-that looks really good!! Good job! Who do you know that has the machine to do that cool design? Oh wait, you live in Utah-every other woman has one! :) Only 2 1/2 more weeks. I am very excited! I am excited to hear about your labor and delivery! I just love those stories!

Very cute blanket! I know how much work quilts are to make. I am trying to make 3 quilts by Christmas. Ummm, I need to get going on that. I wanted to pass along some good, sound advice..... Buy another bunny...or two. They inevitably get lost. My sister had one go out the car window on the freeway two years after it was given to her little boy. I guess he wanted to see if it could fly. If we find a lovie that our child likes, we march right out and buy another one. :) Can't wait to see your darling baby girl!
