Boy Rag Blanket-Strips

So, I have officially decided that all things "ragged" are my favorite blankets to currently sew. This is my third finished one. I LOVE it! Awhile back, a friend posted on her blog a strip rag blanket. Before that, I had only seen them in block form. Anyway, I had to give it a try. From start (cutting fabric) to finish (all the snipping), I think that it only took me around 2 or 3 hours. Then of course I had to wash and dry it, but that doesn't count in my "completion" time.

Here is the over all picture of the finished blanket.

Here is the close-up photo.


This one is going to a neighbor that recently had a baby boy this past week. This family also showed a very generous and outpouring of love and support when Ryan passed away. I feel very honored and blessed to have them as neighbors and that I can show my appreciation in this small way.
