a friend of mine has recently just given birth to a baby girl. a few weeks ago we held a baby shower for her and given i am on a pretty tight student budget I had to think of something to get her that would be meaningful but wouldn't break the bank.
I decided to make a baby blanket as I didn't think she had one already and it would mean I could make something relatively cheap but it would be a bit special. I made a rather simple design using one later of cotton and one layer if polar fleece. at the time of making the blanket i didn't know the sex of the baby so I went with gender non-specific colours and i knew Brenda was keen on navy so i went with that in mind.
I didn't follow any specific instructions but I did find this post which was the same blanket style I was using and had some great pointers. I also used leftover fabric to make a cloud pillow and Brenda sent me a pic of the bassinet all done up with its new threads :)
