A friend of mine was having a baby girl and I wanted to make a blanket baby Allie could grow into. With that in mind, when my friend Dionne and I went shopping we looked for girlie fabrics, not necessarily nursery patterns. Also, I didn't know what colors my friend would be choosing for Allie's room so I went with a mix. The back is done in a nice light green flannel. Also on the back, I made hearts using two of the fabrics from the blanket and hand embroidered Allie's name and birthdate, then appliqued it on. Since the blanket was finished before she was born I had to hand stitch the applique. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of the hearts. Next time. :)
Love it, very cute fabrics! What a special, thoughtful gift!! ~Amy
