Fleece Blanket Instructions

No-Sew Slit-Fringe Fleece Blanket 
(no knots)


YOU WILL NEED:
Polar Fleece (1 yard, 1 ½ yard or 2 yard pieces), Ruler and Sewing Scissors
SIMPLE 5-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
Step #1 - 
Before you begin, trim off selvage edges and square edges as needed.
Step #2 - 
Cut a 4 inch square from each corner of the fleece.
Step #3 - 
Cut clean and even 4-inch long by 1-inch wide fringe around the blanket. 
Step #4 - 
Using the tips of your scissors, make a tiny slit (about ½  inch long) at the base of each piece of fringe. 
Step #5 - 
Feed the end of the fringe through the back side of the slit you just cut and pull through to create a neat and secure fringed edge. (Please don’t do knots - the slit-fringe makes for a much softer blanket. Thanks!)
When your blanket(s) is finished you may either drop it off to my house or call me and I will pick it up.   

If you have any questions, let me know.  

Thank you so much for your help! 
*Blankets Due By Sunday, October 31st
