The Real Miss Sonya

The real Miss Sonya was born in 1901. She was my wife’s Swedish Mormor (which translates into “mother’s mother”). Her loves were her family, baking, weaving and embroidery. When she wasn’t in her kitchen making a loaf of cardamom coffee cake or some pepakokor cookies, she was in her rocking chair embroidering one of her heirloom quality blankets for the newest baby in the family.

Her blankies were the inspiration for our Sonya Bebeblankees. We have searched high and low for the softest weaves and the silkiest edges. Each embroidered blankie is prepared with love and care. They are super-unique and extremely thoughtful. We hope we make you look good by giving this gift.

How the Company Began

Started in 2004, we’re a Dallas-based Baby Blankie company specializing in unique Embroidered Baby Blankies: all the while, trying get a few smiles in the process. While many personalization shops or national retailers offer personalization, it’s usually 20 or so characters and takes a few weeks. Well, it’s part of who we are not to settle for status quo. So, we offer up to 200 characters per blankie and 3-7 day turn-around.

Since we launched our site in June 2004, we’ve gotten a lot of feedback from our customers. See what others are saying about their Miss Sonya’s: Feedback on our Personalized Baby Blankets.

Our Mission

Offer customers a super-fun, fast, and easy way to give the most unique Baby Gift possible and generate the highest number of smiles we can muster.

What Makes Our Blankets So Unique?

It’s Personalized Out The Whazoo! Plain and simple fact: we offer 200 characters of embroidery in the cost of your blankie. Many websites and stores now offer the embroidery of a name, monogram, or date. However, most of these stores offer as little as 3-20 characters per blanket. If you go to an embroidery shop, you can get as much embroidery as you want, but you’ll most likely pay out the nose for 200 characters (some shops charge up to $1 per character - that’d be $200!). Plus, we offer more font choices than almost anyone out there. With this high quality blanket, this unique baby gift just might be the most thoughtful gift a mom and her new baby could get.

Plus, with oodles of colors and combinations, you don’t have to grow out of your Baby Blanket, either. We know, for a fact, that there are 7 and 8 year olds still holding on to their Miss Sonya’s. But, because it’s blue and orange, Timmy’s friends think it’s kinda cool. A kid can never have too many blankets, so update their blankie when little Noah or Emma turns 3 or 4.
Layout: Your text (up to 50 characters per side) will be embroidered around all four satin edges of the blanket. Text faces the center of the blanket, so someone could pick it up and read the embroidery clockwise around the edges.
