50 State Blanket Part 11 – Virginia to Wyoming and Assembly

August 12, 2022August 12, 2022 Jamie

So I have been a little slacking recently, but today I took a vacation day from my 9 to 5 job and decided that I would get caught up on some CraftEaze projects. This is the final post for the 50 state blanket. This blanket was really my most ambitious project ever. I had to develop patterns for all 50 states (really 49 patterns since Colorado and Wyoming are the same pattern). This post goes over the states of Virginia to Wyoming. In my opinion, this is one of the most unique shaped grouping of states in the entire blanket.

50 State Blanket Part 10 – South Dakota to Vermont

June 25, 2022January 13, 2024 Jamie

So my husband and I went on vacation recently, and since getting back I have been a little lazy. However, it is time to get back to the 50-state blanket, especially since there are only 10 states left. This post contains the patterns for the states of South Dakota to Vermont. I really like how the state of Texas turned out. I am always a little nervous when it comes to the larger states (like Texas, Alaska, New York, and Florida) that have a very distinct shape because they are so recognizable. But in my opinion, Texas looks just like how the state looks on the map.

May 11, 2022May 8, 2022 Jamie

This is part 8 of the 50 state blanket. Part 8 consists of the states of New Mexico to Ohio. So my husband and I are trying to get caught up on the latest season of Better Call Saul which is only fitting since this post contains New Mexico. My husband also attended the University of Cincinnati so he thought it was fitting to make the state of Ohio using black and red.

50 States Blanket Part 5 – Kansas to Maryland

March 10, 2022January 13, 2024 Jamie

This is part 5 of the 50 state blanket. Part 5 consists of the states of Kansas to Maryland. Maryland was one of the states that I was worried wouldn’t really look like the state, but you can really see the details in the pattern. Kentucky is one of my favorite color combinations.

This is part 4 of the 50 state blanket. Part 4 contains the instructions for the states of Hawaii to Iowa. I love my Hawaii block because I made an inverted sunset. The background was different shades of orange while the Hawaii islands were ocean blue. I also was a huge fan of how the state of Idaho turned out.

This is part 3 of the 50 States Blanket. Please see Part 1 for information regarding materials needed and Part 2 for Alabama to California.
This post is for the states from Colorado to Georgia. I love how my Florida turned out! I used colors that kind of reminded me of Miami Vice.

50 States Blanket Part 2 – Alabama to California

February 10, 2022March 9, 2022 Jamie

This is the first 5 states for the 50 state blanket. I decided to make my blanket in alphabetical order, that way I didn’t miss a state. So the first five states are Alabama to California.

50 States Blanket Pattern – Part 1

February 9, 2022January 13, 2024 Jamie

itially made a few throw pillows for some silent auctions and orders, but I really only tested the states of Ohio, Missouri, and Louisana. So when I was furloughed from my job in 2020 due to the pandemic, I got bored and decided to try every state chart.
