I was told by a new parent that this is a great style because you can easily grab hold of the carrier handle without worry; versus a regular blanket draped over and the potential of your hand slipping because of interference with the blanket on the handle.
I can also make this sweet & sassy canopy using all baby flannel combo for a cost of $29 plus s/h.
Now all I need is your favorite color combo; nursery room color combo; or just for fun color combo and I'll do the rest.
This would make a wonderful gift for your favorite new parents and their special bundle of joy.
