I finished the special blanket for Bayus and boy am I tired- this was more work than I expected. 29 mamas graciously sent me their logo labels to include in this blanket. As I went through all the tags I decided that I really wanted to be sure I remembered first names and user names- especially for those whose logos don't include that info, so I started writing on twill tape. Then I started thinking of some of the special mamas that I have had the privilage of knowing here who don't have logo tags or didn't send them for one reason or another, thus began a list. The list grew and grew and grew and.............. after quite a hand cramp I finally had to stop make twill tape tags!

Bayus and I offer a hearty thank you to all who contributed, either by materials, tags, or just the friendship you've shared that brought you to mind.

This is my last sew and show until come October, time to pack up the sewing room.

Thanks for looking mamas!

That is gorgeous! I don't think I've seen a taggie blanket that big before.

The blanket looks great. Lots of work too. :)

That looks great Sarah, and I can't believe how big Bayus is already!

:heart: WOW!!

That blanket is going to give him so much joy! You did a fabulous job!

Thanks so much for sharing!

Have a safe & fabulous trip, Sarah! :heart:

Wow, that is sooooo cool! Great job!!!

I will miss your SnS's! Have a great trip!

Wow, that looks great! I think I even see my tag :D
What kind of fabric did you use? Looks uber comfy!

Very neat Sarah. I hope you have a safe trip.

i can't see the pic:( i wanted to say i am sooooooooo sorry for not sending you a tag! i totally forgot all about it. i am glad to see you finished your great project:)
eta: i looked up some of your other posts and i can't see them either ??

so, i see your ticker about your three month vacation, how great! do you have family there?

I can't see the picture either.


Oh dear and I was so looking forward to seeing it.

I can rarely see her pics. :(

We were having server issues, pic should be back up :) hopefully.

The blanket is 1yrd square with velvet one one side and batik on the other- both provided by Tara of Urban Fibers. I wanted the fabrics to be the same as the diaper bag I got from Tara, also the batik just reminds me of AW. We used the blanket tonight while at a Fourth of July party and I got to explain the blanket to a lot of people- it got rave reviews :)

Sarah

That's REALLY nice Sarah!

I think I forgot to send my tag in. I'm very sorry. I don't see the tag or card here so maybe I did send it? I have the memory of a 90 yr old lately! :o

No I didn't recieve a card/tag from you :( bummer.

Sarah

I got to see it! I got to see it! :) It's awesome! You did a great job. That's so cool. I kept trying to read all the individual tags though. lol can't do it.

Awww, that's so sweet! :heart: From pics I've seen of you in the past, I think little Bayus looks alot like his Mama! :)

That is so cool! (I wish I had a logo tag I could have sent to you...need to get on that!) You did such a great job. I like how you put some on the face of the blanket, too, I can see Bayus crawling around and playing with those!
:happy:
I hope you have a wonderful trip!

Tara

Wow, that really turned out neat. What an awesome idea. :)

Have a lovely trip, we'll miss you. Safe travel,

marina you are on the face of the blanket in the upper lefthand corner of the first pic :)

Sarah

That turned out great and looks like it was a lot of fun to do.

Have fun on your trip! Did you ever say why you were going to Spain for 3 months? That's a bit longer than your average tourist trip. :)

the sigline only says vacation because that was the only ticker that I could find that counted down the way I wanted it to.

We will be teaching English as a second language courses to the community and then taking language courses ourselves. In the past dh has been able to also offer programming classes and I've been able to teach dyeing and such so we may do that as well. Spain has always felt like 'home' to us and its where we feel God wants us to be. This summer is somewhat of a first step to that end goal. We'll be learning the language and immersing in the culture- its our great adventure :)

Thanks for asking,
Sarah

How neat Sarah! I just love that idea, and you sure did a thorough job, lol! Bayus is so cute...he's getting bigger by the minute. :)
