| A week or so ago Dana at made posted THIS, and I feel in love! Then over at sweetpea and pumpkins, she made THIS, and I decided I HAD to make that. The soft and cozy blanket you can wear around your neck to keep you warm all winter?? Sign me up! So I made one with about 5 more on my list to make for Christmas gifts. Both Ladies gave great tutorials, so I will just give a quick recap. |
 |
| I used 4 fat quarters that I cut in thirds (the long way) and then sewed the three pieces together to make one long strip. Then lay the 4 layers on top of each other. (the two outer layers should face out) |
 |
| Then pin it in place all over to hold it together. |
 |
| Then starting in the middle start sewing diagonal lines 1/2 inch spaced. |
 |
| Then cut down the middle of each seam, only cutting through 3 of the 4 layers. |
 |
| Then you can put binding on around the edge, or I just turned the edge under. Wash Dry and you are done. They are tedious, but it didn't take long at all. |
 |
| Thanks ladies for the great ideas! Enjoy!! |
I love the colors! It looks great!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! What a great idea. I may have to make one for a gift too.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea. I saw Dana's tutorial too and thought it was cute, but daunting. Too cute.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is really cool! Thanks for sharing - this is the first time I've seen it!
ReplyDeleteBy the way - the top of your blog says 'have you TIRED out for...' (which I am sure none of us have:)!) Looking forward to seeing that project toddler runway!
