Sewing project...

Lily loves textures i've noticed as of late. She grabs anything and everything and wants to touch and feel everything. (This is way different from my boys!) So one day when I was carrying her and letting her drag her hand against the wall as I walked (our walls are texturized) I decided to make her a "texture blanket". So I headed to Wal-Mart and bought 5 different fabrics and cut them into squares, added some ribbons around the border to hook toys on to, added some soft mink fabric to the back and presto! I also made one for my good friend Chandy who just had a baby. Hers had a different pattern and turned out really cute. (I didn't post the picture cause I haven't given it to her yet!!)


Here is Lily loving her texture blanket! I love this age...so much life and personality!
