So I recently shared with you guys the Charlotte's Web themed baby shower. Well, this is the gift I gave to sweet little Charlotte's mommy at the shower. It is a faux chenille baby blanket with, of course, chevron fabric.
It is a top layer of cotton, with 3 layers of flannel underneath sewn diagonally every .5 inch all the way across the blanket. Then with either a chenille cutter (highly recommended) or scissors you cut through the bottom three layers of flannel in between your stitch lines. After you are done with your cutting, run the blanket through a quick wash and dry cycle to give the flannel a sweet little wave underneath. And finally, sew on your blanket binding around the edges. I followed the tutorial from Aesthetic Nest found here, but made little changes to make it my own.
It was an easy, albeit time consuming, process. But I just love the way it turned out. What do you guys think?
Super cute! Amazed by your crafting!
