Rag Quilt Style Baby Blanket
Rag Quilt Style Baby Blanket
"This beautiful baby blanket was styled to mimic a rag quilt. If you're not familiar with rag quilts, you should look them up. They really are amazing and also a basic and easier version of a detailed quilt. Each solid granny square has holes in the shape of an "X" the same way that the stitching would be on a traditional rag quilt square. The light ruffling around each square is sweet without being geared too much toward a girl's blanket. This pattern is easy and contains many pictures. It uses chains, single crochets, half double crochets and double crochets."

I vaguely remember seeing a project like this about 40 years ago so naturally I wouldnt have the faintest idea where to look for it now. I really appreciate that the designer gives two different suggestions for constructing the blocks. Ill definitely go the easier route and work the ruffles onto each square as I go. That way I can experiment with placing the blocks until I decide exactly where each should go.

This is too cute. I have never seen squares connected together like this with a dimensional ruffled border. Very nice and awesome pattern. I think that if I make one that I will stick to the more traditional baby colors with pastel pinks, blues, yellows, and greens. This is a little too dark for me.
