A friend of mine had a baby girl this summer and since there are no other girls in this family besides myself, I take every opportunity I can to make something girly. It's not often I get to work with pink and flowers :)
My boys adore their blankies my mom made them. When they curl up next to theirs, their eyes get heavy and know it's time to drift off to sleep. I loved my blankie dearly when I was a kid. I remember all the times my grandma faithfully mended it over the years. There's something so very comforting about a lovey.
This is made with a sweet pink minky and Anna Maria Horner's little folks voile. Soft and cuddly for a sweet baby girl. I made a few other things as well but wouldn't you know it I forgot to snap photos. Ugh. I made a toy from Lotta Jansdotter's Book that looks like a little giraffe. Then crafted up a mini felt hair clip and one of my baby bibs. I'm not craving a baby girl or anything. Not like I'm pinning girl room inspiration on my Pinterest board...or maybe I am.
Lovely blanky Becca!
