A Blanket for Baby


I just finished my latest project: a blanket for the new baby. Ironically, I actually started another blanket before Christmas and still haven't finished it. I guess as long as it's done by mid May, I'll be fine.

For this blanket, I chose the orange because it's the color that I have come to associate with this baby and I chose the blue because I liked the way it complemented it with the stripes and the jungle animals. I was originally going to put blue bias tape around the edges, but in the end, I liked how it looked as is, so even though the edges don't have a fully finished look, I'm happy with it. The back is a solid piece of the orange fabric.
