So I really wanted to buy Tori one of these tag blankets, but they were so expensive! So I thought to myself...I am going to make one. After some searching I found a pattern on line, except after I followed this lady's direction the tags ended up on the inside of the blanket. So after about 30 minutes of seam ripping and re-sewing...TADAH! Here is Tori's tag blanket. It cost me $3.91...really less than that because I bought 1/2 yards of each of the fabrics and only used 12 x 12 pieces of each. :) I used 7- 5" pieces of ribbon. You gotta love Walmart for the cheapness! I am very happy with the results! The directions are on this website http://fun.families.com/blog/make-a-baby-cuddle-blanketbut remember that you need to sandwich the ribbon between the two flannel pieces, or you will be seam ripping too! Ha ha ha! Stay tuned for more of my craftiness...I would post more, but they are all Christmas gifts.

They look GREAT! You did a good job. I want to make some for Jack now : )
Eyrlin had one and she loved it. Broden now plays with it even though it's pink. These little guys love taggy blanket/not so blanket thingy's.
You're so sweet, you really don't have to give me anything! But it would be really fun to see you.
I can drop by your house on Thursday night if you'll be home. I have my last class at BYU that night...
I'm impressed Kendra =), they look great. One day i'll find my crafty side.
So cute! You did a great job!
