Karina had a birthday party to attend a few months back, and since the two of them have been friends for a long time, Mara already had a fleece "movie blanket" (as we like to call them). She had an apron and the other stand by gifts we like to make and give. What to do, what to do? We did a movie blanket and apron for her American Girl doll with the doll's name embroidered on blanket and apron. (Shown with Karina's American Girl Doll wannabe).
I believe the colors are similar to Mara's blanket and apron, though not from the same cloth. The blanket was a small baby blanket hanging around my sewing room that I had tried 6 or 7 years ago to embroider a name on and the machine started to eat it. I saved the machine, but ruined the blanket. I couldn't bring myself to throw it away because there was still a lot of good fabric there. So, I cut off the ruined edge, trimmed and refinished the edges and voila. Up-cycled doll blanket.
