I had some leftover fabric from the carseat cover so I figured I might as well put it to good use and make her a matching blanket. I originally decided that I would NEVER make a baby blanket because for one, I already have a bunch, and for another, they are so easy to come by. I just couldn't resist making it though! My favorite part is the embroidered heart I put on one of the corners, it makes it so much more personal. It was really fun and easy to make; I'm glad I have a decent machine that can sew cool stitches. Making the rest was pretty straightforward, except the gathered ruffles around the edge took FOREVER because I had to do a little bit at a time. But I am pleased with the way it turned out and I like that it matches her carseat. Here's a personalized minky blanket with ruffles I found on Etsy--$40 plus $7 shipping. Since I used leftover fabric, mine was free! :)
