Baby blankets

The girls had been asking me what they were going to get for the baby when she's born. I am not sure where where they got the idea that they needed to get her something, but I finally decided what they could do. So we went to JoAnn's today and let them each pick out what material they wanted me to make a blanket for the baby. They had such a good time going through and looking at all the different patterns. Icelynn did a really good job finding two things that matched, Shylee needed a little assistance. But all in all, they all turned out really cute.
This is the one Shylee picked out. If ya look closely, some of the butterflies are sparkly.

Icelynn picked out the yellow to go with this butterfly print all on her own. She is so artistic.

This is the one I picked out. I was really hoping to find purple stuff (since that is my favorite color), but to no avail, so I settled for this. It says baby in white print on the back, I think it turned out pretty cute.

With the left over material, I decided to make some burp rags. I made them simple and just ragged the edges (sorry no pictures). I didn't get anything else accomplished today, but at least the girls have something to give their new baby sister when she arrives.
