Faux Chenille Baby Blanket

It has been awhile since I posted, but I haven’t been completely abandoning my sewing machine. Back in October/November I made a baby blanket for my nephew (who was born in January), and followed the Aesthetic Nest’s tutorial for a faux chenille technique. This took a long time and a lot of work, and my hands were definitely sore from the all the cutting, but it was well worth it. The blanket turned out better than I had expected and my sister and brother-in-law absolutely loved it. (It was also a huge hit at the shower!)
