January turned into “Baby Blanket” month for me. I was working on a pink blanket for a cousin's new little girl – my mom saw it and wanted it for the granddaughter of a friend of hers. The granddaughter actually had twins, so I had to come up with a blanket for a little boy as well. Since I still needed a blanket for my cousin, I pulled one out of 'inventory' that I'd forgotten about – I actually like this one better for my cousin – she's not a frills/ruffles person. Pictures aren't great – it was dark & I had to put them on a green chair – usually I do outside photos with more natural light. I love doing baby blankets, but I'm ready to move on to something else for a while!

Twin Baby Boy:

Corner to Corner Blanket with a border cobbled together from a couple of other patterns. I love doing C2C, but the border can be problematic. This turned out to be a nice solution – not too feminine, but still sweet for a little baby.

Your baby blankets are stunningly beautiful. I wish I had your talent and the patience needed to create such works of art.
