Taggie Blanket

Taggie Blanket 2, originally uploaded by RusticOkie.

I really can't share any of the crafty projects I've been working on lately because they are all for Christmas gifts and are pretty specific to the styles and color preferences of the recipient. I don't want to ruin the surprise this close to Christmas. Thankfully (or sadly) I still have lots of projects I completed earlier in the year that I never got around to photgraphing or posting so here you go.

I made this taggie blanket for Kaitlyn when she was still too tiny to care but I just had to make one. I never really understood the purpose of these silly things when Kinsley was a baby and quite frankly thought they were pretty silly. That is until Kinsley decided that she LOVED the tag on her favorite blanket and would rub it on her face when she was sleepy. Now I know.

I loved the bright colors of the printed fabric but chose a more muted pink for the minky dots on the reverse. I think they work well together. And Kaitlyn just thinks that it tastes good, silly girl.
