Littlebit will turn two next weekend and I finally finished her baby blanket. I'm only two years late. (Lovey's was finished before he was born, but it originally started out as a present for another baby ten years before that.) Her blanket is done and will be given to her for her second birthday. All I needed to do was attach the binding, but I didn't want to do it by hand. After reading different directions and trying to use my machine, I finally did it by hand. It is not perfect; the stitches aren't even and there is one corner that needs to be fixed. Any illusions I had about taking up quilting have been put away - for now anyways.
I also made the following doll quilt as practice for the binding. She loves her baby doll she got for Christmas and now her baby can have a blanket too.
This is the front. I used scraps of Christmas fabric I had.
This is the back. I love the swirls in this flannel.
