I love how the A&A swaddle blankets look and feel, but I don't love their price tag! We are on a pretty strict budget as the weeks count down to her arrival, so I was thinking about making my own muslin blankets. I found a DIY tutorial at

and it looks fairly straightforward. From what I can tell, the fabric is pretty inexpensive, and it might be worth the (seemingly pretty minimal) effort for the savings.

Have any of y'all made swaddle blankets? Did they turn out well, or do you wish you had splurged?
