VERY SORRY TO POST HERE BUT NEED LOTS TO SEE THIS! And I'm desperate!

Does anyone have learking around a white Mamas and Papas blanket with one side that is like dressing gown material and the reverse that is verlour like?? Would have been around in 2007. No longer made and can't get hold of one anywhere :(

If anyone has one and would be willing to sell it to me I would be ETERNALLY grateful!

Hmm, methinks someone has lost a certain little person's special blanket... Good luck!

:( :( oh yes marshmallowdelight
Its plane white just has a little mamas and papas logo on the pipped edging. It came as part of a hamper set, its an odd blanket, I was never sure if it was really a bath towel but its thick, smaller than a normal blanket. :(

It sounds like a towel - we've got some like that from Primark, they were beach towells I think but bright colours though.

What colour are you looking for...?

I love a happy ending!

Btw, friends had the same problem with a much loved, then lost blanket. Luckily, they were also able to replace it. When the new one arrived, they cut it up into smaller pieces, so they had spares and I also meant it less cumbersome transporting it around.

They have continued to make the pieces smaller and smaller, now that she is older, in order to wean her off it.

Hope the blanket arrives quickly!

OH, re cutting up the blanket, i can still remember my mum cutting up my blanket when I was three (it was brown and had a silky edge) I WAS DISTRAUGHT, and it just wasn't the same!

Don't chop it up, I was mentally scarred! Blush
