One of the ladies I work with was anxiously waiting for her second grandchild to arrive - this little one was LATE! This gave me time to create a little something for grandma to have when she babysits the little bundle of girlie joy that would enter the world! I started with a wonky star in pinks, which I knew the grandma would like, and continued making it into whatever it wanted to be! I don't actually possess many pinks in my stash or scrap collection so I used what I could. For the back, I put some super soft dimpled cream minky fleece on the back and sewed it up into a rectangular blanket/burp pad/shoulder protector/mini play mat. She was really pleased with it when I gave it to her and has commissioned me to do a cot size quilt! Yay for me! Sorry the photos aren't that great - I should have put the blankie on a darker background!
