Bananas anyone??


I had the honor of testing a new pattern for an adorable lovey blanket. The pattern is by the very talented Courtney of Sister to Sister. I met her through the Thrifty under Fifty challenge-another great perk of the challenge that I hadn't expected-I met some really great people who have inspired me (sounds sappy but so true). I just think this monkey is so cute and soft and snuggly! What an awesome present it would make for a baby gift! The pattern was very easy to follow and well written. Great job Courtney and thanks for letting me test it out.

That is so cute. I should try and make one for my baby. His room is jungle themed and that would be so cute in there. It even matches a monkey thing (no clue what, trash can?, vase? who knows) on the book shelf.

oh so cute, cute, cute!!!! My DIL would absolutely love this for her baby due in May. My son gets tired of the monkeys and says there won't be monkeys in there, however, we all know MOM ends up with the final say! I will have to see if I can purchase the pattern from Courtney!
Found your blog through YCMT's Make It Up as You Go Quilt. Will you be participating with it? I'd love to see what you could do with it! Hope you don't mind, but I'll be following your blog to see. Also, sounds like project filled head would be inspiration to my head to get some of the ideas out.
Crafting together,
Shelly
