We all know babies love soft, lush and plush. And, it’s fun sewing cute little projects and gifts for babies. So Sew4Home designed a delightful baby blanket with a pretty ruffle edge. It's made with two different Cuddle® prints and soft Silky Satin. Sew4Home created a detailed sewing tutorial so you can make this blanket for your favorite baby.
Sew4Home created a step-by-step tutorial for this darling baby blanket. The tutorial details how to sew with Cuddle fabric, how to create a ruffle with Silky Satin, and how to create the layers- so the blanket is reversible and just as cute on the front as the back! Sew4Home also suggests some helpful tips, tools, and notions for the project, such as a using a pressing cloth with an Oliso iron - on low - for the ruffle only, using a Janome with a special ruffler attachment, and how to hand stitch the opening closed so the blanket looks gorgeous on both sides.
Sew4Home chose fabrics in yellow, silver and off white - so the blanket is gender neutral. Great for a baby shower gift when you don’t know if it’s a boy or girl!
How cute would this be for a new baby?!
The blanket features Dream Big Cuddle® in Banana, from Just Imagine, a Sweet Melody Designs Cuddle Collection. The blanket also has a cute polka dot print in Alotta Dots Cuddle Graphite, from our Cuddle Classics Collection. The pretty ruffle edge is made with a Silky Satin solid in an off white.
And, it's washable - easy to care for!
Wouldn’t this blanket be the most gorgeous baby shower gift in the bunch?!
