Easy Double Flannel Blanket: 3/5

I wanted to make a flannel blanket for my little Angela Rose out of this beautiful rose print I found. I went in search of a good tutorial. Because I had just finished my sewing class and felt way overly confident, I decided to make the self-bound version. Ha. Making a self-bound blanket was not-so-easy. Mitering the corners turned out to be tricky, and I had to reread the tutorial multiple times. I still never quite understood the instructions but somehow got mine to work well enough. For my first blanket I was pleased. Angela seems to like it just fine. I would not, however, have felt proud enough to give the blanket to somebody outside of the family. If I make another, I will either find a different self-bound tutorial or else just stick to the more basic version.

  2. This is my favorite blanket of Angela's. It is so soft and I love the rose print! I wish I had one for myself.
