...and sprinkles on top

Love this cupcake fabric, and when I found the pink flannel with the little dots I immediately thought the pink looked like icing with sprinkles. I really like the look of these receiving blankets, just finding it a little tricky to get the corners to lie perfectly flat.

Hope everyone has a Happy Easter weekend!

Another finish...





I made another blanket today, I really like these colors together. I used a wave stitch this time on my machine to topstitch the red and brown border. It's fun to try out different designs instead of always straight.

I went to the local quilt shop today and found some cute flannel fabric with cupcakes for the design, I must make that one next.

I'll be linking this to SewHappyGeek today.

Flannel receiving blanket




This morning, I made this tractor blanket. It has flannel on both sides and it is called a self-binding blanket because of the large border all the way around. For the top stitching, I used a stitch on my machine that is similar to a blanket stitch, not sure if that is visible in the top photo. I like this blanket, it's about 34 inches square, a nice size for a new baby. And I really like trying something new (like those mitered corners). I guess that's why this blog is all over the place!! I can't seem to stick to any one thing, I just bounce from project to project. So many fun things to make that I want to try them all!
