Gauzey Swaddle Blankets

This summer is going to be one eventful summer for both sides of my family. My sister is expecting her first child, a boy in June and I am expecting nine days later with our second little girl. Not only on my side but also my sister-in-law is expecting their fourth sweet girl in August. A lot of new little ones will be joining our families this year. It's so exciting.

I wanted to make something for each new little baby. I LOVE pinterest and most of my projects, ideas, meals, etc all come from that site. It's amazing :) Anyway I found this tutorial on how to make simple swaddle blankets. I decided that this would be the perfect gift for them and for my new little girl.

The past couple weeks have been rainy, so I haven't been able to work much on my dresser (bummer!). Being couped up inside a lot, I order some fabric from one of my favorite fabric sites fabric.com and bought some fun, pretty color gauzey fabrics. They all finally arrived the beginning of this week. I buckled down and started sewing!! Zoie even helped me pin some of the edges over, she enjoyed it a lot. Still have to finish mine, but made sure to get theirs done first. What do you think? Simple, right?!
