Making an Aden Anais like swaddle blanket?

ksales31

Has anyone made any of there own swaddle blankets that are comparable to the store bought ones? I'm thinking about going to JoAnns and finding some similar material and making my own. Does anyone know what kind of material they are made out of so I don't have to stop at Target first? Tips or experience are welcome!

They are made of muslin cotton. Good luck finding the fabric, I think it's expensive and possibly imported.

Babies R Us sells a knock-off.  It might just be cheaper to get those.

I found something similiar at joanns. it's pretty cheap - it was on sale- and there are always coupons. https://www.joann.com/joann/catalog/productdetail.jsp?CATID=cat2575&PRODID=xprd810632 it was something like this. what they use to make those old long boho/hippy skirts out of in the 90s

The muslin material isn't quite as nice as A&A, but they are lightweight and great for swaddling. Joanns should have it, but it might cost the same or more depending on the quality of fabric.

Thanks ladies. I will check Joanns for the material and price and make my decision from there I guess.
