Baby blanket Ta-dah!!!

Baby stuff is so much fun to make... so relaxing, so calming, so rewarding... I have this thing about making baby stuff and that's gotten me in "trouble" sometimes--people thought I was having a baby. And when I said no, they asked who I was going to offer the things to and I answered "I don't know", they thought I was a bit odd...

This is my latest creation. The baby blanked I showed you a while back.
It's made of Katia's Mississipi Tex, 100% cotton, pink (almost lavender) and white, and took exactly 4 balls of yarn (3 white and 1 pink). I got the idea from this one I saw in Flickr, by Carla M.
 Super easy and a pleasure to make and see grow, row by row
and I couldn't resist adding a little variation of a Japanese flower :-) 
Oh... and this one was meant for a specific child. One of my nurses is having a baby in August, a girl. This is for her. 
Would you care for a little tutorial? It's oh so simple...
