A Baby Blanket

 I made a quick baby blanket using this tutorial. The layer of batting in between makes it super thick and warm, but it would work well without it too. I had heard that minky (the brown fabric) is hard to work with, but it didn't give me any problems (except shedding all over the place.)
 I cut the fabric out at 41"X41" and the finished blanket ended up being around 38"X39". This is because I'm horrible at cutting things out squarely and I just had to keep "evening it up" until it look right.

I think it will make a great floor blanket for baby! 
What do you think?

    It looks great Missy! You continually amaze me with all your beautiful projects! I can't wait 'til your baby comes so I can see picture of him all wrapped up in it :-)

    Thanks! My inspiration comes in spurts so I usually do a lot at once and then stop for awhile. And I can't wait for him to be here too! :)

    What a neat blanket! I love that you used minky as the back. That will be so soft and warm!
