So, I have been trying to get a little craftier, ya know do more, make more kinda stuff. I wanted to try something new, and as i was cleaning out presleys closet I found all these recieving blankets that i never used, as i threw them in the good will pile thinking " what a shame, they're so cute" I had a great idea! I cut them up and made a quilt! yeah for me, right. It was a little tougher than I had anticipated, just not quite as easy going as that nice thought, but i managed to get it done and it's not half bad. there are some imperfections, but it's usable and that's all that matters, right? just don't look too close.
I have also had so much fun doing the birpclothes, and I FINALLY found some cute boy material at walmart, so I got some done. Now they're all packaged up waiting for a sweet little baby boy to spit up on them,( anneka). these are so soft too, using that warm and natural batting really makes a difference, I was pleased with them and my new blanket, now I just need some other great ideas! Happy crafting!

I'm thinking of attacking another pieced blanket, wish me luck! Way cute boy material, you are right, Wal-Mart never has cute boy material! Argh!!!
You are so crafty! Way to go. Maybe one of these days I will become more crafty. I've gotten so used to just buying everything because it is less of a hassle.
The blanket is adorable! I should try that with some of our blankets!
