I fell in love with this blanket when I first saw it on Prudent Baby. I was just dying for an excuse to make one. Luckily, my cousin and his wife welcomed a beautiful little girl into the world a little more than a week ago. I finished this before she was born, but didn't want to blog about it until they had received her gift.
I am so happy with how it turned out that I'm making another one as a baby gift for a little boy due in November. Charlotte loved it too, so she may get a car blanket in the future.
Here is the finished product. I don't know the exact size of the finished blanket because it was based on the size of the fabric and the pattern. I would estimate that it ended up being approximately 40" x 40". I love a large blanket for a baby.
The polka-dot fabric is cotton and the check is flannel.
I love the larger baby blankets too. I made one similar for my son when he was first born...it's hard to find extra large receiving blankets. Following you from Blog From...nice to meet you!!! ~Kimberly
