The unfortunate thing about your kids getting sick is that mom always ends up with some form of it or another by the end. I wasn't as productive as I would have liked this week, what with all of the cutting and prepping I did last week!
In fact my finish today isn't even one of those things! But that's okay. My sister-in-law came this weekend to sew with me! I hope to be super productive!
I'm going to a baby shower this morning for a sweet friend who is having daughter number 3 while her husband is deployed.
She needed a warm snuggly blanket. At least I think she did! This blanket measures 30 x 30, perfect in the car or stroller.
She's doing pink and brown in the nursery and I dug out some of my favorites I used making this and this. I know, they are so 2007 (hahaha!) but I still love them.
Especially the girls on pink scooters. The eiffel towers too! Who am I kidding? And I think you've all figured out my love of damask.
I love the super fudgey soft minky backing. And how a simple ribbon wraps the gift.
How productive were you this week? Do share!

I love it, regardless of the year! Some things deserve a resurgence. ;-) Great finish! I hope you're feeling better.
It's looks sooo comfortable. Hope you're feeling better sooon.
Psst... Just updated the button on my page - I like it :)
Is that the cuddle bubble fabric from Hancock Fabrics? It was one of my favorites when I was working there. It's so soft! I just know your friend will love such a warm and cuddly gift. And the baby definitely will, too!
I'll have to check out the mini challenge now... cause you know I need another project. LoL
Hi Amy.
Sorry to hear you all have felt under the weather. I hope you are all feeling better real soon.
Your baby blanket looks so cute and cozy. What a special gift! :o)
Best gift ever!!!! :D I love it sooo much! You are awesome.
The new look and button are really AWESOME!!!! I have nothing to share this week, but next week I sure will!!!!
Really cute! Baby quilts have become my signature baby gift ... and lately, I always "wrap" them with a ribbon, too. Pretty rolled up quilts don't even need wrapping paper. Beautiful finish.
I love the fabric you chose for that blanket. I've got some of the exact same stuff in my stash!!
Hope everyone is feeling better!
