From: Me To:You August 2011 Gift

I started a Facebook Page From:Me To:You to spread Handmade love. Basically you like the page, than nominate anyone in your life that lives in the United States to receive a handmade gift by me. I then pick one winner each month and make something specifically for that person based on the nominators info.

 

August 2011 Gift:  Gender Neutral Baby Blanket

I used this fun animal print, along with an Heather Bailey Pop Garden Chevron print as a side stripe, and a pale yellow vintage chenille on the back.

I put a super soft flannel batting in the middle for a little extra warmth and thickness.  I sewed it pillowcase style and top-stitched the edges. I then did a few lines of quilting on the chevron, and quilted around a couple of the animals so the fabric wouldn’t shift.

 

 

I just love this yellow chenille.

I hope this soon to be new momma and her babe get lots of snuggle time with this soft blanket.

 

Thanks for stopping by!
