I made this blanket for a friend of mine, for her first baby. She had a little boy, and his room was train themed. I made it awhile a go, so I can't remember the exact measurements, but it was just slightly bigger than your standard baby blanket size. Which I think of as 36x46. So, a little bigger than that.
And close-up of the stitches
I had a hard time with this one. I kept having to pull it apart because I couldn't get the beginning to work out right. I never did get it to be like it was supposed to, but unless you know the pattern you wouldn't be able to tell. That's what I get for branching out and not using my standard baby blanket pattern, lol. She loved it anyway, and that's all that matters in the end.
