For some reason, I hadn't even thought about making something for her, until I knew she was born. Only one problem, when I heard she was born, I thought she was a he, so I made the edging blue. By the time I found out that he was a Sophie, I was almost half way done with the first round of V-stitches. There was NO WAY I was frogging. SO, I did a second round of V-stitches, and made them closer together, so the blue would at least be a ruffle.
Then, it dawned on me that the Bernat color "Buttercup" might come close to matching the receiving blanket. Voila! It did . . . so I am finishing the edging with a round of scs in this thread.
I think it had a pretty girlie look now. What do you think?

| I had this blanket and was happy when I discovered it had been blanket stitched around the edge. Made it so much easier to do the edging. |

| Isn't that ruffle adorable? Sure looks girlie to me. |

| See how close the Buttercup" comes to the blanket color. |
I will get the pattern written up and posted for those of you who might be interested.
