Little Blanks Minky Blanket and Owl Set

As I've mentioned, I'm venturing into the baby business.  One thing I've always loved are little blankies.  Partly because I had one as a kid, and partly because they are just so soft and cute!  I received one for Ashlyn before she was born and she absolutely loves it.  It's name is Little Blankie and actually has a nick name for it - "Little Blanks".  When she has misplaced it, she calls for it.  I've thought of a device you can install in it to let you know where it is when it's gone missing.  Hmmm?  For now, we'll just keep looking around the house for it.  

And so I had a couple of friends ask me to put together a little gift set for them to give to someone who had or was having a baby.   Ashlyn's Little Blanks inspired me to make one!   Here's one of the sets! 


The blanket is made with turquoise dotted minky material, white minky material, and brown ruffled satin trim. 




The owl is made with cream chenille and brown, white, and turquoise corduroy material.  Felt eyes and nose to finish.  Isn't it precious?  I think so!  Doesn't everyone need one of these little loves perched on a shelf?

If you have someone in your life that is having a baby or just had a baby, please think of this set.  I can do it all sorts of colors and fabrics.  Just ask or visit my Etsy shop http://www.cpian406.etsy.com/.   It's handmade by me and it supports the handmade community.   No need to go out the door and look for the perfect gift.  It will arrive in the mail in no time!
