Baby Shower Gift

Here is the gift I made for Lacy's Shower.  I forgot to take a picture of it before I wrapped it up so this was after she opened it up.  I made the blanket out of leftover fleece.  I only messed up a few times but I'm getting much better at fixing my mistakes.  I thought the blanket turned out pretty good.  

I cut the small squares 3x3 and the large squares 5.5x5.5.  Sew the 4 small squares into square before sewing the rest together.  I backed the quilt with fleece which helps hide the seams from the fleece.  It was a great way to use up some scraps that I had.  The only thing I had to buy was the piece for the back which was even on sale this week.
