Shopping Local: Bonny Baby Blankets
Always a fan of shopping locally, I was pleased to hear that my friend Amber recently started a business in Victoria catering to mamas and their newborns. Bonny Baby sews charming and cozy swaddling blankets to keep babies warm and moms happy.

A two-sided combination of smooth quilting cotton and fuzzy flannel, Amber’s Bonny Baby blankets are both functional and entirely sweet. To accompany the blankets she has also created coordinated burping cloths. Featuring charming prints, Bonny Baby blankets are quickly becoming a hot commodity in the Victoria region.

my daughter sarah had a “becky blanket” that was given to her when she was born and it was lost when we moved to Canada, Sarah is now nine and still misses her blanket and we have not been able to replace it….we would love to wrap up my baby in a new “bonny blanket”
Awwww those are adorable! I have a couple friends at work who are having babies soon and I KNOW they would love this! Thanks for the great contest.

my sister Kayla is having a baby, so my beautiful niece or nephew!!!
I’d swaddle my good friend Regan’s first baby with those beautiful blankets! Baby is coming in June, so it would be perfect for those slightly-chilly not yet summer nights, and she would adore the gorgeous prints. She’s also passionate about supporting local, so this would be right up her alley!
My best friend is having a baby in approximately 6 weeks – I would swaddle her new baby.
My friend is having a baby soon!! This would make a great gift for her!
These are so cute! My best friend is having a baby in a few months and I’d love to give it to her as a gift.
