Need your help?

I need to start making some more Whiffy Smoos in some new cool colors and patterns. If you are not familiar with our Smoo, you can get more details at Whiffy Bean Bags.

I need some help in determining what people want a blanket to look like? Brown and pink? red? purple? all minkee? some flannel? cotton woven on one side? or?????????????

Please leave me a comment with some suggestions. If I decide to go with your suggestion, I will send you out a custom regular Whiffy Bean Bag.

I love those. They are adorable. I would buy organic velour - cotton or bamboo. I think dyed would be pretty, but plain would be great as well. Maybe one side the velour and one side an I spy panel to keep them busy while you wait in line.

You KNOW that I LOVE our larger Smoo blankets! One side minkee... the other side would be great as a soft woven or perhaps a lightweight knit... thinking something like a bamboo jersey or something? Minkee dot on both sides works the best out of the two I've got.

There's a larger Smoo blanket? We LOVE our Smoo just the way it is, minkee on both sides with the one bumpy side. Maybe an OCV one like lisa said would be a nice, natural option. Maybe you could add a couple silky taggies on the side for baby to play with.

I personally don't like minky and prefer natural fabrics. I think an all natural smoo with BV on one side and BFT on the other would be nice. People are loving all the great prints (Kaufman, Amy Butler, etc on dipes) why not on a smoo? If not an entire side you could trim it in one of these fabrics and make the pocket in it.

I like things to be varied textures, so what about OBV or terry on one side, satin on the other, and corduroy for the pocket?

Another vote for OBV here. Especially dyed. I recently found soft, brushed wovens and am in love! Bamboo fleece is really soft, too, but gets a little pilly after a wash or two. What about silky edging? My DD sucks her thumb and rubs silky things at the same time.

HI! I love your products. I think that chocolate brown and pink or green are very popular right now. Also, my DD is at an age where she loves fabric that has recognizeable characters or shapes on them. Like Nemo, Pooh, or balls or fruit or animals.
She'll sit in the cart at the store and look at my fabric purchases saying 'FiFi' (Fishy) or 'apple' or whatever depending on what I have.
HTH :)

I like the idea of minkee or velour on one side and a machine washable poly satin on the other. I made a blanket like this for my youngest son's 1st birthday and he *loves* it. He's another who likes to rub things as he goes to sleep.
