Nita Blankie?: July 2011

"She makes coverings for her bed ..." Proverbs 31:22
What is Nita Blankie?

I started making these Blankies for my friends about ten years ago, and they have always been a delightful and welcomed gift. My daughter's name, Allyson, is spelled with a 'y' and it's next to impossible to find anything personalized for her. The Blankie was the perfect answer and such a special keepsake.

The Blankies are embroidered with a name and a small design on the fleece side and Minkee or some other type of plush fabric for the backing. Ribbon loops are spaced around the outer edge, giving a baby something to play with or a loop to clip to a stroller so they won't fall off.

Most Blankies are approximately 30" x 30", but as each Blankie is unique, it may vary a few inches either way. You can choose the two colors YOU need for that special gift, perhaps to match the nursery. Email me at rdyefam@yahoo.com and I will be happy to work with you to make a very special gift if you 'Nita Blankie'!

Aqua & Brown

It might be a little hard to tell by the picture, but this blankie is a soft aqua & brown. Such a sweet color combination!! These colors would work great for either a boy or a girl!!!

Ladybug Hugs

Couldn't resist this cute little ladybug!!! And I love how it turned out with the pink and black - so cute & girly!! A name could easily replace the "Ladybug Hugs" or if you don't know the name of the baby yet it would be great the way it is!!

This N' That

I have been working on some "generic" blankies for a sweet lady in Arkansas and thought I would share. I can't decide which one is my favorite, but if you don't know the name of the baby and want a great shower gift, any of these would work!!! I still have a few more I need to take pictures of, so there will be more to come!!!
