Baby Blankets






My oldest son's best friend found out he's having twins ( girls), my son decided that he wanted me to make the girls baby blankets from him. I  took  my oldest to the local sewing store and he picked out all the fabrics for the baby blankets, he decided that he wanted them double fleece and with a fleece border going around them. I decided that since these blankets were done in fleece that I wasn't going to put batting in between them. I love the fleece that my son picked out for these baby blankets. The size I ended up with for these baby blankets was 52" x 60". I made them bigger so that way when the girls are growing they can use them as bigger blankets. I also embroidered the girl's name's on them. My son decided that the embroidery should be done with variegated thread. With all the pinks for these blankets, I think it looks really cute
