Ragged Baby Blanket Tutorial by Simple Simon and Company

You’ve heard of Simple Simon and Company, right? Of course you have–they’re amazing. And they’re guest posting today for Nesting to Newborns. And I’m a little in awe of that. Everything liZ and Elizabeth do is gorgeous. The projects; the colors; the tips; the photography! Gush.

Just take a peek over there and you’ll see what I’m talking about. Like this:

I’m totally in love with the colors and design of this Coral, Mustard, and Gray quilt. It’s so perfect for a baby or little girl and it makes me want to quilt. That’s saying a lot since I typically admire quilts from a distance (I’m just not that precise!)

Then there’s the {You are Special Today} Pillow Tutorial. I’ve seen plates and other “You’re special” items, but never a pillow. And I love it. I’m pretty sure Saige would try to claim the pillow every day though…

And for anyone who sews, these Tips for Sewing Smooth Curves and Creating Crisp Corners (along with the other tips they offer) are a life saver. Scallops are hard, and they make it look (and sound) easy. That’s how you know you’re learning from someone good.

Pretty much everything they do blows me away, so it should be no surprise that what they’re sharing today is completely adorable and doable for anyone.

I love these ragged baby blankets. They’re so cuddly and soft, and the raggedness hides imperfections… 🙂

So with that assurance (and excitement) run over to Simple Simon and Company for the tutorial and look around while you’re there! Thanks ladies!

And don’t forget that today’s the last day to enter the Freshly Picked moccasin giveaway!
