Geometric Blanket


This is a blanket I made for my sweet niece, Grace.  She had been asking me for months to make her a blanket.  I figured her birthday was the perfect occasion.  This was the blanket I was working on when Ella decided to make her own
I topstitched all of the triangles in place. They are all a soft jersey material so they shouldn't fray.  The back is a soft jersey also.  I used another stretchy jersey for my binding.  I really like how soft and cozy it turned out.  I need to make more time to sew.

It's been really hard for me to keep up the last couple of weeks.  
I think I was spoiled a little when the kids were sick and we had a couple of slow lazy days.  
I have a growing list of house projects that I want to start on and get done, 
but my first project is to get my raised planter beds built. 
I am so excited to have a garden again.

  1. This blanket looks so cute and comfy. Grace is a lucky girl! I may have to hit you up on raised planter bed tips. I'm trying to talk Chris into building us some so we can grow a garden as part of phase III in getting Owen to eat more veggies.
