Deb - would you post a picture of one you've made? I want to make some and have a sewing machine but I'm still beginner and not quite sure what to do. I'm teaching myself how to sew as I go and I've only made a few things.

I did read that if you use batting you should make stitches across the blanket to keep the batting secure so does that mean I just use a decorative stitch to make a quilted looking pattern across the blanket?
