I take the receiving blankets and make a quilt out of them. I started when my son was little, and we moved him to a regular twin bed. I didn't have any money, and he was scared in the bed. He screamed in the crib, and would sleep on a reg. bed, so we put one up for him. anyway, I made his and embroidered his name at the top. backed it with a sheet blanket since I had one handy. He loved it, so I did the same for my daughter. Then along came the nieces and nephews, so they each got one made. I never took pictures back then, but the last one I made several years ago I did . I made smaller ones for my grandchildren this year. well instead of embroidering their name at the top, I used a picture of them.
