Emily's Blanket


I made this blanket for Emily as soon as we found out she was finally on her way home! Mary & Matt opened it at their baby shower. This is the first time I've ever sewn a blanket, and I was really happy with how it turned out! I want to make more blankets like these, I really enjoyed doing it.


I love the oriental pattern on the front and the soft minky dot backing. Some of the lines I sewed aren't exactly straight, but I don't think Emily has noticed yet haha!

Mushi the Ladybug


This is the little ladybug I made for Emily. It was really easy and quick to make. The hardest part was sewing on all of the little spots! My grandma helped name her, ladybug in Japanese is tentou mushi.

I got the pattern from Lion Brand's website.
