So tonight I made my very first blanket!! A few weeks ago Caiti asked if we could re-do her room. She wanted a doggy room. I had no problem with that. The only thing I had a problem with was....finding a blanket!! I searched everywhere and could not find a blanket that had just dogs! I found some throw blankets but nothing that was big enough for her bed. Well, the other day we were at Walmart and walked through (literally just walking through because I never go near the fabric section unless Jay is returning home from a deployment, lol). We ended up seeing this really cute piece of fabric and Caiti just loved it!! I remembered someone had told me you could make blankets without having to sew...those who know me know I DO NOT SEW! HAHA! So I talked to my friend Alex and she gave me a quick 5 minute class on how to make these. I went and picked up the fabric today and got to work. I must say that I am so proud of myself for actually putting the effort into making something. Besides it killing my back, I actually enjoyed doing it! Caiti was very happy with it and my whole family was impressed!
THE FABRIC BEFORE...UNDERNEATH IS BLACK FABRIC.
THIS IS AFTER ALL THE CUTTING AND TYING!
THE FINISHED PRODUCT ON HER BED!
