Monogram Tag Blanket

So since I am in that time of my life that I have many friends having babies and I am invited to lots of baby showers I have been trying to think of something cute, cheap, unique, but also something that is helpful to have. So what did I do googled it! Ahhh gotta love google.... And tag blankets came up they are so cute, so I made one for a shower I was invited to this past weekend-

I made it out of scraps of fabric and ribbon I have laying around, and to add a little something I cut a plastic bag and sewed it on the inside, since babies love that sound. For a tutorial on a tag blanket go here.

Well I also wanted to do something unique and I found this tutorial here, about a monogramed tag blanket, which I love! I made one for my friend who recently had a baby. The baby's name starts with G that is why I did that letter if you can tell it is a letter G, I went kinda crazy on the tags. And if you are going to do a letter just be warned sewing around a curvy letter like G was kinda tricky but not too bad. Also I kinda wish I would have made the G larger, but that is for next time. I thought it turned out cute and a great personalized gift!

Well done! Who would have thought your freakish amounts of ribbon would come in handy?!
