My favorite baby gift is still a quilted flannel blanket. I have made ten recently and still have more to make. Good thing I have a large baby flannel stash.
The first two sets (two of each) were quilted on the Bernina Q24 and have a separate binding.
The next three sets all used batting leftovers that were zig-zagged together. They were sewn together using this method. I quilted them on my Tiara.
These might not be as fun to see, but they were fun to make.

I think these are fun to see! I like seeing the different flannels you chose. They are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGreat blankets all soft and ccozy. It's fun just seeing your fabrics!!
ReplyDeleteFun to make counts, and I am sure they will be fun for some babies to snuggle with, so I think you have a win here :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea!! For some reason it never dawned on me to do this but I'm going to try it now! Thanks for sharing. All these quilts looks so comfy :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sharon! Many of the moms I give them to tell me that it is their favorite tummy time/floor time blanket. I make them 40 x 52 inches.
DeleteI just made about 15 double flannel blankets, without the batting. They are fun to make and to give. I make mine about 42 x 45 and they will last up thru the toddler years in terms of size.
ReplyDeleteThey will keep a number of babies cozy and warm. Nice work!!
ReplyDeleteI have made these with flannel 2 yds x WOF for gifts for older kids. We have one here that has aged well and is so comfortable summer and winter.
ReplyDeleteThey are awesome, Jasmine, and it's always super handy to have items like this on hand to gift.
