Unusual Baby Blanket

This baby blanket was an unusual project designed for an older child whose original baby blanket had disappeared. The mom wanted to incorporate various designs reflecting the daughter's interests and we left space to add additional designs as time goes by. I did a similar blanket many years ago for my youngest. For that one, I made the blanket myself in the rag quilt technique.

Here we started with the child's name and date of birth in the center of the blanket and sprinkled designs relating to gymnastics, soccer, red wagon, airplane, and an angel.
