A Little Bit of Everything for everybody PART 1
Well here`s the next installment of Making Handmade Children`s Blankets..
Because I have such a Variety of Fabrics and Designs I`m going to concentrate on specific categories as the weeks go on.
This week I`ll show you some of the Blankets I can make for the Boys in your life.
Most little Boys in the age group of 4-8 have seen the Disney Movie "Cars" with the animated Stars Lightning McQueen and Tow Mater.
I have several fabrics to choose from with Cars as the theme.
This one is a Cotton Fabric and is a Tan background with a Road Map Design on the Background with the Streets and Towns featured in the Movie.
As you can see, Lightning McQueen and Tow Mater are also featured on this Fabric.
I then will edge the Blanket with a Red Satin Blanket Binding which really brightens it up and compliments the Red that is Lightning.
Then I have a Matchbox Rescue Vehicle Blanket with Fire Trucks, Hydrants and Dalmation Dogs on it.

This is also made with a Cotton fabric..
And who can resist Sleepy Puppy Dogs ?
This Blanket is made using Snuggly Warm Flannel Fabric. Blues Clues look a like Puppies sleeping on a Fluffy White Cloud against a Navy Blue Background.
This one can be edged with either Blue or White Blanket Binding

This Bouncing Tigger Blanket is made using Cotton Fabric
And the Buzz Lightyear one is a Snuggly Flannel
And last but not least I have Care Bears. I`ve made Several different ones with Yellow and Dark Blue Backgrounds.
These are Cotton Fabrics and both were edged with Yellow Blanket Bindings

All of these featured measure 36" x 44" which is Crib/Toddler Bed Size
