Peacock Ribbon Blanket

I think this is my new favorite ribbon blanket! Natalie asked me to make one for her daughter. She wanted purple and a peacock, and this is what I came up with:
I knew immediately I wanted to use Lynnie Pinnie's applique peacock design.
 I picked a sparkly marble purple fabric for the front side. I used the vertical stripe ribbon as my color palette and selected fabrics, ribbon and thread to match. Then I used white minkee on the back. It should be a very special lovey!

  1. We got it in the mail last night and Lucy actually shook with glee when I handed it to her. It hasn't really left her hands since yesterday! She has 'tried' every ribbon and even offered a few of her favorites to her brother who promptly told her that ribbons aren't for eating...she seemd to shrug and went on testing them all again!
