Olivia's Blanket Project
I began this project a couple of months ago when I spotted this adorable fabric at Walmart. Olivia needs a new blanket when we upgrade her bed to a twin from toddler. So this right of passage will be marked with her mothers FIRST attempt at a blanket by herself...using her sewing machine!
Now back to the first person. I still have a border to sew to what I already have. I chose salmon...the color (let me just preempt that one right away). And what would a blanket for my little girl be without some adorable buttons?? I'm not sold on the red one, I do like the traditional look in tandem with 80's mod---BUT, the red button is simply not big enough. I need it UBER-sized...even bigger than the beige one. Speaking of beige, that will be coupled with the white squares. With the yellow squares, the brown will go.
