    I saw a fleece blanket that was not finished in the normal knotted fringe. It looked like a slit had been cut in the fabric above the "fringe" and somehow was put through the hole so that one color carried along the front of the blanket????? Does this make sense? Would love to know how this was done...any ideas? Thanks

    Thank you for the info. I've never made a fleece blanket that way (only in quillows) I think I'll try it. :)

    I use the Edge Perfect Blade and really love it...you just line your ruler up with the edge of the fabric and run the blade where you want to make perfect slits. I don't think this is what you're asking but thought I'd throw it in here for another choice for you to edge fleece blankets. You then can do your blanket stitch, crochet stitch or numerous other types with yarn, embroidery thread or whatever you desire for a really nice edge on your fleece blanket.
