Lil’ Lovee by Linda!

Lil’ Lovee by Linda!

wrapped and ready

 

With all the babies being born in my family this year, I’m trying new ideas for baby gifts.  This is my latest creation called Lil’ Lovee by Linda.

I combined leftover Minkee and flannel scraps.  The finished size is about 13″, but you can make it any size depending on your remnants.  I used 2 flannels to make an uneven 4 patch block.  Any block would work, I wanted fewer seams to keep it soft and cuddly.  If I was more ambitious, I might have personalized the Lil’ Lovee, maybe next time!

It’s a sweet, cheek cuddler when they’re little babies and a dolly blanket when they’re older.  It’s sooooo soft.

Like the dish mats, I left the 4 patch seam open for turning and then top- stitched around the seams, closing the opening.  Fast and easy!

 

This one was sent to Kailani, who is enjoying her Tummy Time quilt, too!

Mini Dish Mat

 

The bridal shower invite asked us to be creative and bring a gift that fit in the enclosed envelope!  My first response was to make a mini dish mat in the bride’s favorite colors.  I used 5 inch squares and terry cloth, constructed in the same manner as the Linda’s Dish Mat Tutorial Revisited.

With some creative folding it fit perfectly into the supplied envelope,  along with a recipe card and a little money!

 

Add some fabric to start her stash!

 

 

 

I knew she was also getting a sewing machine from her mom, so I added some fabric scraps to the envelope wrapping, too!

I hope she likes it!

Thanks for looking.  🙂 Linda
