I took inspiration from the Alabama Stitch Book to make this blanket for my dear friend Charee.
Check it out:
Charee picked the colors, I picked the circles because I love me some spots.

The back side
I used both applique and reverse applique, both with raw edges, and I decided to include exposed knots
Actually, this was loads of fun to make, it all went down very fast.
Here it is all wrapped up ready for a sweet baby boy. I always try to include a tag which tells the new owner how to care for their handmade item
if you have a chance to pick up the Alabama Stitch Book, definitely do, it's very unique and inspirational.
