Blocks and Blankets

So I haven't posted anything here in quite some time, so I'll be playing catch up for a minute. Most of the things I have made recently have been items to post on our etsy site: www.etsy.com/OnceUponaChildhood

Someone came to our etsy shop and wanted a block and blanket made out of this super cute owl fabric. I was so excited when the fabric came in the mail and it turned out quite cute.I love this one. I bought the blue colored dot fabric to make my son a little blanket and I had some leftovers. I made a taggie blanket that matches this block.
This colorful set has a taggie block, taggie blanket, and 3 burp rags.
For this pink and brown set, I used two (and maybe part of one other one) fat quarters that I got on clearance at Walmart for $0.25 each! Wow! What a deal! This set has a taggie blanket, two burp rags, a bib, and a taggie ball.
Just enough fabric to make a taggie blanket:
Also, I'm hoping my next post will be about the car cozys I made for my son and a couple of them for his friends' birthdays coming up. Stay tuned!

Craft Organization

I've been wanting to organize my crafts for a while now. I got the idea from my sister. I gathered up formula cans and other containers, found some scrapbook paper I liked and used modge podge to make it look nice. I am excited to use these storage containers in my craft room that I'll get one day in the distant future.

A New Blanket

While I've been making some baby blanket sets, I have this soft and comfy fabric. Whenever it is out, Ryan grabs it and cuddles with it and takes it all over the house with him. So I decided he needed his own soft blanket. He has tons of blankets people made for him, but none with that really soft fabric. While I was at JoAnns yesterday, I picked up some cute flannel and soft minky fabric and made him is own blanket. I love the colors and want to make him a quilt for a twin size bed one day out of these colors.
