Here I am again with another ONE HOUR RECEIVING BLANKET that I made recently. Actually, I made two. We have a new baby in the family and so I had a good reason to sew a couple of these easy flannel blankets. Little Santiago made his appearance on November 24th, 2025, and we are so excited to welcome him to the family! Unfortunately, he lives in Arizona and I live in Nevada so seeing him won't be as often as I would like 😞
I did make a cowboy blanket before for a friend's new baby and i had plenty of fabric left so made one for Santi. I know that bears and cowboys are a favorite of the parents so I found fabric at Michael's online that was cute. We live in a fairly small town and our Walmart recently remodeled and took out the majority of their fabric section--thanks a lot.

I do love to sew these blankets since they do go together so quickly. I made four last year; two were for friends who had babies. A good friend made a blanket like these for my daughter, Staci, when she was born and so this has been my go-to for new baby gifts pretty much ever since. Below is the blanket that I made for Staci's daughter, Oakli, when she was born almost eight years ago.
Below are Oakli's, Staci's and Ali Rose's blankets. All three still have theirs!
So, if you are so inclined, follow the link at the beginning of this post to get full details on making a ONE HOUR RECEIVING BLANKET!
Thanks for stopping by!

Aw, those are adorable! Congratulations! I'm surprised your Michael's has fabric; our local one does not.
ReplyDeleteHi Joanne. I actually have to order it from the Michael's website. Our nearest Michael's is over 2 hours away but the website does have a good selection of fabrics and so far, I am happy with the quality.
