03-24-09-blankets-011A friend of mine makes these beautiful no-sew blanket, and was kind enough to share her pictures and instructions with me so I could share it them all of you. This blanket requires no sewing at all, and the end result is a cozy, comfortable, reversible blanket.

You’ll need:

  • 2 yards of a printed material
  • 2 yards of a solid material
  • Scissors

The instructions are so simple:

1.  Lay your two pieces of fabric on a table, one piece on top of the other.

2.  Cut 4×4 squares out of each corner.

3.  Cut strips along the sides from BOTH blankets, 1 inch wide and four inches long.

4.  Tie each strip (print and solid) together with a double knot.

(Of course, if that’s too much trouble, there’s always the no-sew blanket.) [...]
