Color of the Day is Minky Glitter

Saturday is a fun color day, each Saturday of the monthly challenge is Pick Your Favorite Glitter! My color of the day is Minky GLITTER and I’m sharing a glitter picture that is very special.

For my great granddaughter’s baby shower in July 2018, I made her a soft and furry baby blanket with matching pillow. The back and banding was made from Minky fabric and the face was a pink fabric with beautiful butterflies sprinkled with glitter!

This was the first Minky blanket I had made and when my granddaughter opened the package she said, “Hey we should start making Minky blankets!”

Lia was born on August 23, 2018 and we started Mama’s Minkys that day also.

Alexandra finds some awesome fabrics and gorgeous Minky fabric colors, I fabricate the blankets and Lia is our quality control inspector. Mama’s Minkys are made with love and baby approved.

There is glitter sprinkled throughout the fabric and it’s so delicate with the different colored butterflies. It just so happens that Lia loves “fyy-fyy’s” as she calls butterflies.

Back in January I came up with an idea to make some butterflies from some Minky scraps. When I gave them to Lia she was so excited and hugged them saying, “My fyy-fyy!” After seeing how excited she was, we added this to our line and call them Minky Cuddlers.

So there you have it, you learned about my Color of the Day is Minky Glitter and also the birth of Mama’s Minkys. I’m excited to come up with more Glitter for next Saturday for Color of the Day Challenge.
