The king of all baby items. The wooby blanket. Spelling is not important.
If you’re crafty, you can make your own.
I will be making a few; it’s super easy.
If making your own is not your thing, click on any of the photos to link to cute handmade wooby blankets.
Large blanket with Soft Top
You need:
1 yard of fabric; I like a mix of 1/2 yard minky and 1/2 yard cotton print for contrast.
sewing stuff like scissors, thread, sewing machine (or if you’re crazy, needle and thread), and a seam ripper
Cut one cotton piece of fabric to 30×30
Cut your minky piece to 30×36
lay these pieces face to face, with the 6 inches hanging off. Sew around three sides where the fabric lines up.
Then, fold the minky edge over on itself (this will make a soft minky top panel). Make sure to overlap it a little over the cotton so you have a seam to sew.
Sew the sides of the minky-matched up fabric, then turn the blanket right side out. Sew around the whole thing to create sturdy edges.
Then, hand stitch or machine sew the opening closed, making a nice strait line with the rough seem edges hidden. I like to decorative stitch over the close. The blanket will be approx. 29 x 32.
