Sooo, my sister in law has found that the only way to get her 7 month old son to sleep is in a wearable blanket. The problem is, that, like all her children, he is an Amazon. The wearable blankets available are all too short.

My mother-in-law and I are going to attempt to make a few wearable blankets for him, but I cannot seem to find a pattern that isn't....ridiculous. It is not likely that he will be the future king of England, so we're not needing an overly grandiose robe, just a simple, wearable blanket. We're going to try to make our own pattern, but I thought I'd reach out and see if anyone had any experience in this field and what kind of tips I could get.

No, it's not a quilt. Yes, I understand that I may have to work with *gag* fleece. But I'm willing to sacrifice some of my dignity because little Ben is just such a little sweetheart. Any tips you have would be greatly appreciated :)
