Cuddle Crazy

Cuddle blanket #2 is done!

Again, I apologize for the cruddy picture.  I never can seem to snap any pictures when there is daylight outside.  Anywho, this one was "rockstar" themed and I'm so happy with the way it turned out.  This time around, I watched a bunch of YouTube videos on quilt binding and tried a few of their tips and ticks.  Also, this time around I hand-bound it instead of machine binding it.  It took me about an hour, but it was totally worth it.  Looks great from the back. 


Well, not great, but definitely better than the first time around!  My mitered corners still need a lot of work, but I'm getting there.  Hopefully after another couple of quilts, my technique will get better and I'll look like a pro :-)

    1. Thanks! They're actually just for my baby gift stash (for now), so the next person to have a baby will be the lucky recipient :-)
