Baby Hankie Blankie...

I believe I am the slowest blogger ever...but who can keep up with Lori the "wonder blogger".  I only have 5 children, a husband, 3 cats, 1 dog, and neverending laudry.
Anyways, I have been working on a baby hankie blankie for my niece Nikki, who is having a baby, don't know what it is yet.. But I finished the quilt top this morning and had to put it on here.
But first my 5 thankfuls
-  I am thankful if people still read this : )
-  I am thankful for babies, especially other peoples!
-  I am thankful for the warm and beautiful weather we've been having
-  My baby Nathan turned 4 last week, it goes soooo fast.
-  and a late happy birthday to my sister Laurel, who is older than me : )

  1. Love that blanket!! I have never heard of a hankie blankie before, but I sure do love it!
    (and I can see why you'd be looking for projects to do with all that free time you must have!)
    Have a happy day!

  6. My SIL just sent me some of her old hankies, she is awaiting the birth of a new grand baby, what a perfect gift to make and give to the new baby!

    Thanks for the inspiration!
