I have had a little extra time since Spring Semester is dwindling down. So, I decided to do some more sewing projects. I have done a few receiving blankets and matching burp cloths. I had someone ask me if I was trying to tell people something, NO!!!! I am not announcing I'm expecting a baby, nor will I be any time soon. I am making these, because I enjoy doing it. I also give them away as gifts; I have had several friends/family members announce they are expecting. Since things are so expensive I have made things for them instead of buying. I often pull out my sewing machine when I have a lot weighing on my mind. It allows me to be alone with my thoughts. So, people are getting gifts and I am able to relax a little!
Here are my receiving blankets and matching burp cloths:

ReplyDeleteI can't tell from your photos--are you doing something fancy around the edges? I found a really cute pattern for burp clothes. I'll have to show you! As you know, I'm a grandma-in-waiting, so I'm happily making burp clothes at my house too :) I need to venture out into the realm of receiving blankets--won't that be an adventure for me! Thanks for sharing!
