For Christmas my friend, Michelle, made me my very own nokie (her family's word for special blanket). These rag blankets became popular not long after Tessa was born and I remember feeling bummed because I thought they were so cute and wouldn't ever get one for a baby of mine. But I needn't feel sad any long because now I have my own. It is so very warm and snugly. I sleep with it every night.Oh and my favorite part is that she was able to make it almost completely with flannel she already had! There are pieces from jammies she made the girls and me last year plus parts of other

That's cool! Garrit loves his froggy blanket you made him.
What a great gift: even adults need nokies and a special hug now and then! ;-)
What a great blanket and a thoughtful gift! I love flannel.
It looks soft and cuddly. I can see why you wanted one.
We all need our own special things. It's lovely. Enjoy.
It's lovely. Wish I had my own nookie :)
Can yhou tell me how it is put together? Mjames7704@cox.net
I think that is one of the most wonderful gestures I have heard of in a while! It can be such a simple thing that warms your heart SO much!
I've got a call in to find out where the term nokie came from..
I R JELLLLUSSSSSSSSSSSSsss
Yes I do know I spelled it wrong I did so on purpose :) I may have to make myself a blankie of my VERY OWN.
Marcia, this is such a great idea. I'm going to make one...or try to !
