I decided to try one more with the flannel & this time I got it right! & it only took me 30 minutes but most of that was choosing the fabric LOL. This is baby big bird dpo you think it is a boy or a girl or can it be both? The back is a plain soft yellow

It's adorable with the baby big bird print and it would work for either a boy or girl baby.

Cute! You will be closer to the ten minutes -- the "10 minute" blanket suggests -- in no time at all if you keep this up!

It looks really good Loralye: Is this the self binding method from Missouri Quilting?
You will be a pro in no time.

I have seen the video a couple of times - but, the corners are not super clear to me - hehehe, I must have a mental block about it! Thanks Jerri!!! Hugs, Laura

Are the directions anywhere in a text file, as I am on slow dial up and cannot watch videous?

If you Google "self binding baby blanket tutorial" there are many different tutorials available. This on has good close-up pics of the corners. http://www.sew-much-ado.com/2012/...
