Patchwork – Another baby blanket

January 21, 2018 by nadel&gabel

Another newborn – another baby blanket. This time the idea I had in my mind was a clear, yet colourful blanket out of geometric shapes, patched together. So I went through my stash of fabrics, layed out different options, rearranged them again … until I was satisfied. I worked in blocks that I – step by step – put together. I also added some topstiching in corresponding colours. The patchworked front then was complemented with a light, but cuddly cotton […]

One for all – Easy baby blankets

May 1, 2016 by nadel&gabel

Kids are born around us in a quite high frequency these days… of course, it’s the age. When it comes to newborn gifts I always turn back to a handmade blanket. Why? Usually young parents don’t lack of clothes for their baby. So, why giving the 101st romper which will be too small within weeks, anyway? Instead I like the (potential) durability and versatility of a blanket. It can warm the newborn in the house and outside in the buggy. It can […]

First steps – Quilted baby blanket

July 3, 2015 by nadel&gabel

Here we go – another baby blanket since this knitted one (which is well loved, as I hear with pride). And I am aunt again! And while the little boy makes his first steps in this world (figuratively, of course), I have already successfully absolved my first quilting project. For a long time I’ve had in my mind to attempt this unconquered bastion of sewing. After buying helpful equipment like a cutting mat, a rotary cutter and a quilting ruler, […]

Snug and warm – Knitted baby blanket

April 25, 2015 by nadel&gabel

And there it is, my best friends newborn girl. Of course this didn’t happen out of a sudden 😉 … so I had time to prepare. And I used long winter evenings to work on this knitted baby blanket.   For long I had admired those beautiful colourful blankets from The Purl Bee (find the crochet pattern here). Now I finally had the chance to knit one myself. It’s kind of the easiest knitting project you can imagine. It’s a […]
