Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus Taggie Blanket


This might just be my favorite of all the taggie blankets I have made. I got this fabric as soon as it was released, but I didn't know what to do with it. 

One of my librarian colleagues recently had a baby. She loves Mo Willems and has taken a stuffed Pigeon all over the world. 

This blankie combines two of my favorite things - children's literature and sewing!


There were a few challenges: the pre-quilted fabric was tough to sew through, but I expected that. 

Sewing the tags on the curves was tricky too. Some of them ended up at a different angle than I would have preferred. 

The quilting stitch I used around the edge was perfect. It was very forgiving around the curves and match the Illustration style of the Pigeon. 

Overall I am very pleased with this Pigeon taggie blanket and I hope baby H will be too!
