Where are they now?

Whatever happened to Katherine's Baby Blanket? I chose this because it was my first large project. I starting knitting it March 2008 using this pattern. I used some really cheap sport weight acrylic yarn from Lidl and I had plans to back it with fleece or flannel, once it was finished I decided not too and the blanket remained as it was.
I used it alot for Katherine when she was a baby. It washed nicely, always looked really bright and clean but eventually we stopped using it. I'm not sure why. I did get it out ready for Pippa but it doesn't feel so good now. It is bobbled and feels squeaky and to be honest I am not even sure where it is now, perhaps in the airing cupboard........
I love it though, and I am still really proud of the fact I finished such a big project especially as I am such a slow knitter!
