Spring is just around the corner, I know it is hard to believe with snow still on the ground here.
New styles of Snug-A-Bug Blankets will be sprouting with the spring flowers.
Over the next few weeks I will be posting the spring line so please keep checking back.
Until then soak up the spring sun, like my pug Oscar. It has been a long snowy winter.

People often ask me What is Minky? Minky—or Minkee, as it is sometimes known—is a super-soft cashmere-like, 100% polyester microfiber stretch fabric. It is warm as fleece but doesn’t pill like fleece.
Minky comes in a wide range of colours and styles like dot and diamond. Minky is machine washable in cold or warm water and will not shrink. A gentle washer and dryer cycle is recommended. Ironing Minky is not recommended and could smooth out your minky-dot dimples. Minky is also not flame resistant and care should be taken around open flames.
Minky is becoming more and more popular and I have seen it in all sorts of forms at many stores. There is definitely different qualities of minky. I use a very high quality minky that I get from a supplier in the US.
I managed to find some time yesterday and have created 3 new designs with my new fabric.
Flutterby is made from super-soft white Minky-Plush backed with a whimsical 100% cotton print with 4 different themes. One is birds on a tree, “TWEET”, the next is, “KITTY” with a very retro diva cat, then we have, “FLUTTERBY” with a large butterfly and a peace sign above it’s head then at last, “ESCAPE” which is a bird escaping a beautiful vintage, wire cage.
Poppy is a retro Orange and Green 100% cotton print that is backed with chocolate Minky-Dot.
Nothing but Flowers is also backed with a lush chocolate minky dot. The print is of pink and brown flowers on a taupe background. The material is a heavier upholstery weight fabric–the type used in duvet covers–100% stain resistant cotton.

There are new styles available from Snug-A-Bug Blankets. I have a couple new Animal Cracker blankets, one in very girly pink.
I have also brought back Bringing Home Daisy in a spring yellow. I have a couple of new prints: a kitchsy animal print in blue and pink, a couple retro floral prints—one in green and orange, and another in pinks and browns.
The fabric I am most excited about is an interesting modern, tattoo-art style block print. I hope to have these new styles available for sale in the next couple of weeks. So please keep checking back or add my blog to your feed reader so you can get instant updates.
Both Chocolate Blocks and Mosaic blankets are back for sale in the Snug-A-Bug Blankets Shop. I am all out of the Mosaic fabric, so this is the last blanket in that style.
Share some chocolate with your special Snug-A-Bug!
New fabric is on it’s way and I hope to see it arrive anytime now.
I have a few new styles up at my etsy store as well as a few old favourites. Please keep checking back for the new styles!
The sock monkey material has arrived and the sock monkey blankets are available, just in time for Christmas.
You can get them at my Etsy store, or if you don’t see one listed contact me directly and I can get one out to you.
Etsy is back up and running with a whole new look. They have changed some of the interface to make it easier for the buyer. It is still running a little slow as they work out the bugs. You can visit the Snugabug Blankets shop and see the new etsy.
I have a number of blankets that I will be listing there in the next couple of weeks. Are We There Yet? and Animal Crackers with different colour combinations of minky. I am also expecting a shipment of red sock monkey material any day now so I will have some monkey fur blankets ready for Christmas.
If you are interested in a Monkey fur blanket for your special snugabug send me an e-mail and I will let you know when they are ready to go.
