    These are all the rage here right now. So many people have em in our school colors at the football games. Our colors are blue and gold and we're the bobcats...there are lots made out of blue leopard print on one side and gold or yellow solid on the other. I have to admit, if I had a kid in school I'd make me one.

    They are all the rage here too. Seems like everyone is making these except me. I better jump on the bandwagon.

    I made my first one last weekend and it was so simple. I plan on making more for Christmas gifts.

    I have a friend who buys fleece & a pretty material...Then she puts batting between & makes a quilt out of it.

    She hand ties with yarn & and a contrasting border.

    They turn out great.

    I made one of these last night. DD got one from a friend for Christmas and she wouldn't share so I made me my own last night. Super quick project but it looks so good when you are finished. Watch for the fleece to be going on sale soon and buy up some to use for Christmas crafts.
