As a tradition I enjoy making baby blankets for my close friends each time they have a new baby. Over the years I have probably made about seven or eight of these to give away. M's new baby girl is no exception. And I am so happy with how it turned out.
I make 'big' baby blankets. More like an adult sized lap quilt. But I do that so that the baby can use my blanket for years. I think I do this because of a blanket that I received as a baby. My great-grandma Dixie have me a large baby blanket when I was young and I would sleep with it for years. In fact I still have it safely tucked away in my ceder chest and it always makes me feel safe and loved.
M also has a little boy who now has the privilege of being a big brother. I wanted to make him something special for this occasion as well. After a lot of thought and careful contemplation I found the perfect idea. I made T a Super T cape! I am so happy with how it turned out as well. I can't wait to see how much he likes it.
