I just love her blog <a href="http://www.shetriestolearn.blogspot.com/">Trying it Out</a>! And she's so sweet! Make sure to stop by and tell her hello!!<br />
<br />
I am Heidi and I blog over at <a href="http://www.shetriestolearn.blogspot.com/">trying it out</a>. I used to be a junior high math teacher, until I had my first daughter, who is now four. I also have a 22 month old daughter and a pretty great husband (most the time anyway :) ). I love to create, but I am not creative. Fortunately I have the rest of the blogging world to inspire me, and I often use their help to make something. I am too independent to ask someone to teach me, so I learn by trial and error, often more error. I just like having a place to keep track of all the things I make, and my progression. This is my first time being featured, and I am pretty excited about it, Thanks Amanda for giving me a chance, and for always helping me find more inspiration<br />

one yard of back fabric (I used Chenille)<br />
scraps of wool felt-optional (for flower)<br />
Velcro (the sew on kind, not the sticky kind, it will gunk up your machine)<br />
basic sewing tools (thread, scissors, pins, etc)<br />

</div><div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><br />
then sew the two pieces together, wrong sides together, leaving a space for turning<br />
turn right sides out and top stitch (I did three rounds of top stitch, because I liked the look of it. You could do one or two)<br />

<br />
now make the straps for attaching to the car seat<br />

I sewed to rectangles of chenille together measuring about 3.5" by 7.5". I sewed them right sides together, then turned them right side out and top stitched. I repeated for the second strap.<br />
<br />

Then I sewed Velcro on, so it could wrap around the car seat handle. Make sure you place the Velcro on opposite sides, so it can wrap flat<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizY2PX0IPzeVnAanSrbG4q537_z5WzdKIOkunFYQ_s_8YTUCmsqWMTTTobGkG6iH8EzWeUaCYqFgrEUpS5bA01Vp-ImhZwnUp8FpJrzl-Gcf1R207QITXKgPyb4Ef1hJkhB4TemKkJemw/s1600/DSC_0281.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizY2PX0IPzeVnAanSrbG4q537_z5WzdKIOkunFYQ_s_8YTUCmsqWMTTTobGkG6iH8EzWeUaCYqFgrEUpS5bA01Vp-ImhZwnUp8FpJrzl-Gcf1R207QITXKgPyb4Ef1hJkhB4TemKkJemw/s400/DSC_0281.JPG" style="cursor: move;" /></a><br />
it will Velcro closed like this<br />
<br />
Then I sewed the straps on (I did two seams down the center to attach each strap)<br />

All of the fabulous blanket tutorials are - you guessed it in my email. <br />

The password doesn't work. Tried to reset it online. But the computer told me I would have to contact customer service.<br />

Hopefully customer service emails me soon! If you have emailed me lately and I haven't responded -- so sorry! I'm not ignoring you!

</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So some people are laughing at me. But I really want a hat. Really want a hat. We're pretty boring -- I'd probably end up wearing it to the grocery store. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But I would. I would wear it down the cereal aisle with pride. While matching up my coupons. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Because that is royal.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

But I will say -- I like the blue color. And I like her coat. </span><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img alt="" height="400px" src="http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2011/specials/royal-wedding/hats/frances-osborne-435.jpg" width="300px" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Princess Osborne </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Picture from </span><a href="http://mommyhip.blogspot.com/2011/04/royal-wedding-hats.html"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">here</span></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm kind of a freak for feathers right now.

But Lady Frederick pulled it off nicely. She makes it look classy.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img alt="" height="400px" src="http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2011/specials/royal-wedding/hats/marie-chantalmiller-435.jpg" width="300px" /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Princess Marie-Chantal's hat</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Photo from </span><a href="http://mommyhip.blogspot.com/2011/04/royal-wedding-hats.html"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">here</span></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think this hat is great. The color is gorgeous. I love the flowers. It looks very British. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First - Have you heard of BlogFrog? It's an awesome site that allows everyone to connect in communities. Think facebook ... but in groups.

And make sure that as my blog(s) grow that I am keeping them going in the direction that I'd like. I started blogging so that I could inspire, be inspired and make friends who understood my excitement over things like burlap, printable fabric (ok, just fabric in general) and decorating for such holidays like Talk Like A Pirate Day (oh yes, it's a biggie in our house). </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With that said -- please join me on </span><a href="http://twitter.com/#!/adesigned"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Twitter</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, email me, join the </span><a href="http://www.theblogfrog.com/1503926/forum"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Do It Yourself Community</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, if you live in the Indianapolis area let's do lunch.

It's the end of the month - which means blanket party time! Don't forget each Monday you can see a special blanket tutorial at </span><a href="http://www.todaystoptwenty.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today's Top 20</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, </span><a href="http://www.werethejoneses.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We're the Joneses</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, and </span><a href="http://www.thisandthatcreative.com/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This & That Creative</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">! </span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For anyone new - I've started a blanket drive this year to raise blankets for Project Linus. Why? To donate blankets in my son Gabe's name. I lost our baby in August due to a miscarriage. I really wanted something positive to be associated with his name. And giving back is the best way to do that. </span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Project Linus is such a great organization. They donate handmade blankets to kids (newborn - teens) who need them the most. I'm really happy to be working with them. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am so happy to say that I have recieved over 50 blankets for Project Linus. WOW! Thank you so much!!! I really am just so greatful. :) Thank you thank you thank you.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> So link up any blanket project you've got. Mail me your blankets to get donated. Email if you are interested in guest posting a blanket tutorial (it will be seen at </span><a href="http://www.todaystoptwenty.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today's Top 20</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, </span><a href="http://www.werethejoneses.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We're The Joneses</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> and </span><a href="http://www.thisandthatcreative.com/"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This & That Creative</span></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">). </span></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />

Where to start. I love the colors. I love the fabric. I love the edges. The edges...want to know how? Here's Abbie to show you! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Several years ago my mother taught me how to crochet around the edges of flannel. When she came to visit me from Utah she brought along several burp cloths that had holes already punched near the edges that made it quick and easy to crochet. I live in Wisconsin and have not found any local way to acquire similar flannel blankets or burp cloths or anyone who has the machine and is able to do it for me. So I decided to try to come up with my own way of doing it. I also decided to try on calico fabric instead of flannel because for some things I like the look and feel of calico better. After some trial and error I found a way to put holes into the fabric that works well enough. One advantage to this method is that you don't see the holes in the final product, although the crocheting does go slightly slower. Here are the steps to make a blanket similar to this one:</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh06flz5htikyEhn6tvlcfU7fMMdGfvu_HUdZEAWHEXJJfz4R9zzC3kTNbBseoPCrTozc2E2qtCo6kAAHDh4ke5RUtzaQesuk53-LOiQvJ8A3lQ3vr7QF2MX3050EI6U5n5QlpLidKmwgP_/s400/2011+03+15_1663.JPG" width="400" /> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Cut two pieces of fabric the size you would like the blanket to be, plus ½-inch extra.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. With right sides together, sew around all four edges of your fabric with a <span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;">¼</span>-inch seam allowance, leaving enough space to turn right-side out.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Turn right side out, hand stitch the opening closed and press the edges flat.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Using a wing needle and no thread in your machine, sew around all four edges with the longest stitch setting on your machine and slightly further than <span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;">¼</span>-inch from the edge. A wing needle has metal flanges extending to the right and left of the needle. When the needle goes through the fabric, the wings push the yarns of the fabric to the sides, creating holes.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx2r9IL3-MtD1UEO3oXlE3XNqSE5kxbdZBWRwx4Ld82Bnhv4QmUXAMvlX4mH2noZ-Ml4BD8AQeEn4_sFes7ZY88vNfkUHm-fAE6lY6_FEEPgYZBFRqcUkBHoxIJyZNAs63QBjMPGcE2Nju/s1600/2011+02+24_1338_edited-1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx2r9IL3-MtD1UEO3oXlE3XNqSE5kxbdZBWRwx4Ld82Bnhv4QmUXAMvlX4mH2noZ-Ml4BD8AQeEn4_sFes7ZY88vNfkUHm-fAE6lY6_FEEPgYZBFRqcUkBHoxIJyZNAs63QBjMPGcE2Nju/s400/2011+02+24_1338_edited-1.jpg" width="266" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOJS0OCZMhKMcTYDi7JcciVAW4YTrEH35N4wZUv1FNHGPUwH1esNEZd6NiRaFjRBaTVqHjgr-0GiXQMNAGy7Qhb2lVnBK7ZYqeav5LyCS9qafSEHPMDykebnmqZ_RvHUMqIQK-UQ3B0aV3/s1600/2011+02+24_1355_edited-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOJS0OCZMhKMcTYDi7JcciVAW4YTrEH35N4wZUv1FNHGPUwH1esNEZd6NiRaFjRBaTVqHjgr-0GiXQMNAGy7Qhb2lVnBK7ZYqeav5LyCS9qafSEHPMDykebnmqZ_RvHUMqIQK-UQ3B0aV3/s400/2011+02+24_1355_edited-1.JPG" width="400" /></span></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5.

You can print it out - make it your background - write a special note with it. Or print it on fabric (you can get packages of printable fabric at Joann's or other craft stores) and just use some heat and bond to attach it to a canvas bag and give it to the fabulous teachers and therapists who help our kids SO much! {can you tell that's what I'm going to do?} :) {Hope Josh's therapists don't happen to read my blog.. well after this they can!!}</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPbjPt_KsZvicubkHwt-oquZp5Rds02UYnQ8uhW-dRGfIRa7EomAbCj-t46G9ZzEOzGaoZgzNSFs7Y7hnblgBgzfyOwRcsHBQ8RFfDOYjZ9YNpjGVXQMyI2k-xOFkBFNxFliwcLn5naAyV/s1600/autism.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="640" r6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPbjPt_KsZvicubkHwt-oquZp5Rds02UYnQ8uhW-dRGfIRa7EomAbCj-t46G9ZzEOzGaoZgzNSFs7Y7hnblgBgzfyOwRcsHBQ8RFfDOYjZ9YNpjGVXQMyI2k-xOFkBFNxFliwcLn5naAyV/s640/autism.jpg" width="480" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Love you to puzzle pieces </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Just leave a comment - with your email address - and I will email you the pdf! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
