Free Minion Inspired Granny Square Security Blanket Pattern©
By Connie Hughes Designs©

I had to make one using the Minions...this is perfect for a 4 or 5 year old
and this little guy would sure make nap time a little more fun!

If you decide to make one for a younger child just be careful putting

 buttons on it...since we all know everything goes in their mouths!

This pattern is easy and can be made quickly.
