I’m chuffed with how the border turned out. It was a bit of a mystery until the last minute, but looks good I think, nice and sturdy for a baby blanket. Now we just need the baby!

Posted onWith Pinterest peaking my love of craft, I have been getting into a fair bit of it these days. Today it is rainy and cold, so I grabbed a canvas and got crafty.
Firstly I nailed little tacks into the wooden border, all around the edge, in no particular order.
Then I grabbed all my random cottons and got winding.
This is the end result.
Then I grabbed chip board letters, flowers and buttons and fiddled around until I thought it looked right. I stuck then on using the glue gun.
And the neaten up the back and hide all the cotton tags and ends I covered it in card stock, and staple gunned a hanging string. Ready to give to my niece for her 4th birthday.
Easy peasy. And the day is done and I have to get the kids from school!
