Cozy

I have been wanting to make this blanket for a while after finding this tutorial on aesthetic nest. I LOVE the fabric she chose for her blanket, and I actually found some awesome fabric I would have LOVED to use AFTER I had almost finished this one, but I'm happy with how this one turned out!
Here is the finished product, and then some tedious sewing and cutting pics in the process.






After sewing 1/2 in. apart all across the blanket you have to cut in between each stitch on the flannel side. Fun!


here is a cute picture of tanner waiting patiently for me to be done for the night

Here is what the blanket looks like right before you wash and dry it: I think making the satin double fold binding was the most annoying part.
 So that's it! It was fun, and I am done making blankets for now!
Here is a quick pick from last sunday at 21 weeks. Tanner took one picture, and you couldn't really see my bump, so he made me stick it out at much as I could! See! there is something there! It's becoming hard trying to put together sunday clothes. I seem to be popping out in too many places I never had to worry about before....


I have my ultra sound tomorrow and I'm sooo excited. I can hardly contain myself. I can't wait to see how much bigger she is. I'm sure there will be some fun pics to come! (well fun to me at least)

We found out yesterday that we are having a girl too! Now there are two girls and two boys. And your cute bump...jealous! I am sticking out like no other we keep checking to make sure there is only one.

Your projects look so cute!

What a cute blanket! I love it! I totally want to make one. Maybe I will try and make one for Ivy when school starts and after my craft fair.......I AM IN A CRAFT FAIR SELLING STUFF!!!! I am totally excited! BUT I haven't made anything for Ivy and she needs a cool blanket that mommy made just for her.
