The World’s Softest Baby Blanket

Well it might not technically be the *world’s softest*, but it is pretty cozy! I saw the Chenille Backed Blanket Tutorial over at Craft Apple this past summer and was really excited when I finally got a chance to make one a couple of weeks ago. I have to say that I give her tutorial 2 thumbs up!  I’m a total sewing novice, but I was able to do this project (with just a little bit of help)...
