The baby blanket ...

So I've finally started to make my son's memory blanket...Mr. K will be three in September so it might be done just in time for his third birthday :)
I've had the squares cut out for months and finally found a free moment to start sewing the squares together...
I'm really happy with how its turning out so far... I unfortunately live in a city without a fabric store.. I know crazy right??? So my mom who is traveling to Vanocuver will be picking me up some fabric for the edges :)
For those who havent seen my other post about memory blankets , basically you cut up your childs clothing into squares and sew them together in a patch work style quilt..
I really had so many little outfits that I just loved and couldn't part with them, and I loved this idea so much that I put scissors to baby clothing and Im loving what I've done so far :)
I will post some pictures soon...
