Lately I've been working on making Carly a "taggie" blanket. I've seen some really cute ones and I thought I'd try one. Now the thing is that I don't sew.... don't know how to, haven't really done it at all! Hot Glue is my best friend!!!! I like to hot glue everything and anything, until now..... I have decided that it was time to become a "crafty mom".......or whatever. So I went to the store and picked out some fabric and ribbons (Jonathan helped me out with that one, he actually picked the fabric out... can you tell?) well anyways I got it all pinned up and ready to sew... but there's just one problem, I don't own a sewing machine..LOL. Well good thing that my friend Leah has one, so one of these days I'm going to go and bug her and maybe finish this one project, that way I can put it under "finished projects". Oh the joys of trying to take care of kids, the house and doing "crafty motherly things"...LOL Well anyways let me know what you think.... but do keep in mind that this is my first and hopefully not my last.
Note: I picked out really cute ribbon to go along with it, except I ran out of it before I was even half way done... so I started to use some of my scrap ribbon that I have at home.... so next time buy enough ribbon to finish the whole thing...lol.
I saw these cute little blankets on etsy.com

I love it! I am going to try and make one over our break! Jon...couldn't you pick out a more girly pattern? Or did you just get the cheapest one or whatever was on sale!
