Woodland Baby Blanket

This cute woodland theme blanket is perfect for babies and toddlers. The squares are all started the same by making a circle with the animal colour, or plain coloured for the appliques squares. The main colour for each square is using Alpine stitch. It features 14 different woodland themed animals, leaves, toadstools and tree appliques. The edging is made with moss stitch using some of the animal colours, which finishes the blanket perfectly!
