Best Minky Baby Blankets

If you need a meaningful baby shower gift, that is super easy, you need to check out The Sew Loved Shop.  They have customized baby blankets with rush delivery and gift options.  I tend to wait to till the last minute for gifts, but don't want to just send the Amazon box with the cheap gift bag.  I was the super hero by gifting my friend a super soft blanket with her baby's name embroidered on it, all wrapped in tissue paper and a box.  They even had a Create a Blanket where I picked the colors that matched their nursery.
