All babies love ribbons... and blankies... and ribbon blankies. So I made a little set for my cute sister-in-law Kim, who is about to have her first baby, a little boy. I have made a few of these lately for friends and family having babies (and of course I forgot to take any pictures!), and I think I liked this method, my third attempt, best. I used actual strips of fabric to make the "ribbons" and I love, love the matchy-ness of it. These fabrics are all from Hobby Lobby. The pattern for the ribbon blanket and matching ribbon block are from modabakeshop.com. My cute friend Danielle gave me the idea for the soft fabric chain. Her son Ryan (such a cutie!) was gnawing away on in one day and I thought it was such a good idea. It turned out to be a way harder project than I intended, for some odd reason, but the result was so fun!
Good luck with everything, Kim -- I hope that little guy gets here soon!
