Faux Chenille


A balnket for my little man...made using this tutorial from the ever talented Dana at MADE

Managed to sew all the rows of stitching in one sitting while Mr D slept.

A slight interruption in the midst of sewing however!! A possum fried itself right in front of me.  I saw  a shower of sparks and heard a tremendous bang...and the power went out (I thought I was fried).
3 fire trucks turned up...the possum was still alive, sitting at the top of the pole licking itself...tough little bugger.

Then I cut the rows the following night, again while he slept.
I want to make another one now...with white on the top...using poplin instead of flannelette.
Wasn't that labour intensive...
