I really think I have creative ideas but I don’t consider myself artistic…
First, I lack time. Second, I lack follow-through.
One item I can say that was VERY easy and CHEAP to make was a No Sew Fleece Tie Blanket.
What You Need:
1 square Fleece Blanket (60″ x 60″ is what I used)
1 Additional Square Fleece Blanket
ScissorsOptional:
Square 4″x4″ template or index card
Rotary Cutter
Measuring TapeI like making the fleece blankets coordinating but not the same. I got a solid pink and a cupcake pattern.
Directions:
1.) Lay down your first square fleece
2.) Lay your second square fleece lined up on top. Make sure all edges line up. Trim where needed.
3.) Cut a 4 inch by 4 inch square on each corner.
4.) Cut strips about every two finger lengths (an inch and a half – give or take) along the edges. Cut about 4 inches in length.
5.) Once strips are cut along all 4 sides of the blanket, choose a corner. Tie the right bottom of one side with the left top strip of the other side of the blanket. Begin tying all strips in a double knot.
6.) Repeat along all four edges/side.
Ta-da! You are done with your easy No Sew Fleece Blanket. Makes a great gift!
