Notes: 

 I wanted to use the colors from a favorite kilim rug for a baby blanket - fushia, chocolate brown, pink and red.  I used an 8-shaft adaptation of the traditional blooming leaf overshot pattern.  I still haven't got the pattern squared, but I'll keep trying.  I added tassels (favorites of my kids and my nieces when they were babies/toddlers  and referred to as "snoots").
