Fill In The Blankie Giveaway!

I’m going to confess one of my deepest, darkest secrets. ……….

I’m a blankie snob.

Phew. It feels good to get that into the light.

Can you blame me though?

Think how important your child’s blankie is:

  • Being one of his biggest sources of comfort, a blankie needs to be the right weight and have just the right ‘slip’ for tiny fingers to rub while falling asleep.
  • It needs to be the perfect size for fort building and super hero cape sessions. Not to mention the ever important Princess dress up dates and impromptu wedding veil needs.
  • And if it is also stylish and hip, well that makes a Momma’s heart soar as well.


The perfect blankie can be hard for trached kids to find. Our RT was adamant that any kid with a trach not use blankets made from material that ‘shed’, such as minkee. That includes handmade quilts tied with yarn. The popular rag quilts too.

This is where, Fill In The Blankie comes in.

Ultra Personalized Baby Blankets. Up to 200 Characters! Way More Than Monogram Or A Name & Birth Date!

(I would show you a picture of Parker and his Fill In The Blankie right here, but he’s been sick this week and refuses to give that blankie up for anything. Not a great combo for a photo op.)

I simply can’t say enough about the absolutely perfect blanket she created for Parker.

From marketing, to presentation, to the quality of work, quality is of the upmost importance.

And how perfect are the words she custom embroidered on Parker’s blankie?

  • Parker Reed Hodson
  • Brave Hero
  • I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord,
  • plans to give you a future and a hope. – Jer. 29:11

You could create YOUR child’s PERFECT Fill In The Blankie too. One that you could WIN.

    Ok, I too will admit I am a blankie snob! (figured if you could do it, I can too :-)
    This is our first time here and wanted to say first… What a cutie pie! Parker just has that “snuggle with me” look!
    Since my daughter is TOTALLY OBSESSED with silkie things… I think we would choose the Fit For Royalty in Coral Rose with white trim. SoOoo beautiful and snuggly looking. I would use a purple stitching for the wording, in Sweet Dreams Three. I would have one of our favorite quotes placed around the edges “I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always, As long as I’m living, My baby you’ll be!” My kids quote that book A LOT!
    Thanks for the contest!

    I would do The Hills Come Alive, preferably in breezy aqua blue, but not available, so white whisper with white satin would be the next choice.
    I would memorialize those most important moments with, “Jack Thomas Demski was born on 5-1-08 at 2:26 p.m. He weighed 7 lbs. 3 oz. and was 21 inches long. Baptized 7-12-08 at Mount Carmel Lutheran Church. Jack Thomas, may the Lord bless you and keep you safe.” I would also add a sew cute cross and use the denim blue thread. Thank you for a wonderful contest giveaway! I am subscribing to your feed!

  15. DO NOT BUY!

    I just filed a dispute with my credit card company. Blanket was ordered as a gift on August 26 and it never arrived. I’ve been credited the amount by my credit card company. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. THEY DO NOT DELIVER THEIR PRODUCT. I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau. I highly recommend amending your post so people don’t get ripped off, especially since they link to you on their site! THEY DO NOT ANSWER EMAILS OR PHONE CALLS.
