Speaking to Spotted, she said:

“Please can I warn everyone about these blankets, I went to get my baby after his afternoon nap to find the seam had come apart and was wrapped so tightly around his neck that it had to be cut off, we were lucky, the next baby might not be. Surely the stitching should be more secure on items for babies?”
