Shark!

I had really intended to use this shark-themed piece of fleece for two baby blankies, but then decided to keep it larger, to use as a soft throw when needed.  The intended recipients are such ocean-faring folk and have a true fascination and respect for the shark, it was the first piece I put in my basket when I was out shopping for fabrics.  This is the kind of fleece  they sell in a set, with a complimentary color for the backing, that you cut strips along the edges and tie the front to the back, but I didn't want knots in it.   If a baby might be rolling around on it one of these days soon, knots would not do, so I opted to sew the right sides together all around the edges, turn it, then a zig-zag top stitch all around the edges. NOT your typical baby blanket, but it is quite comfy and cozy, with, yes, a touch of adventure. 

You can see how soft this is!

A solid blue backing was included with this Shark print.

Very cushy indeed!

Until next time!
