Mommy getting Crafty!!

So my friend Robyn decided she wanted to make some blankets for her friends 2 little girls...I thought...great idea...I've always wanted to do that...maybe I will make one for Baby Girl at the same time. All of you know that I am not a crafty person at ALL!! So this was huge for me and I was super excited to get started! I was just happy to know it didn't have any sewing involved (I can't even sew on a button...that's Justin's job...Thank God for The Citadel)

SO...here are the pics we took during the progress of Mommy making Baby Girl a blanket. I'm so proud of myself but I know I couldn't have done it without the help of my friends Robyn and Brittany...Thanks Girls!!! Can't wait to see Baby Girl playing on her new blanket.

Cutting the fabric to be even...

Starting with cutting the corners (PS...check out that baby bump...along with a new bump on my face...gotta love pregnancy)


Getting all the ties done...No Riley was not a very big help...

Final product! The colorful side of the blanket has cute little sayings like "Baby Girl" "Sweetie Pie", "Lovey Dovey", "Apple of my eye", "Smile" etc with cute cupcakes, flowers and birds on it. This pattern was a must as soon as I saw the words "BABY GIRL" since I seem to keep calling her that! (Sure hope we have a name picked out soon but in the meantime guess that's her nickname)

Mommy is so proud of her work...can't wait to see my baby girl playing on her blanket!!
