I make baby blanket using 1 yard of flannel and one yard of cotton I place them right sides together, then I sew all the way around them -- leaving a 5 inch opening -- then turn them inside out. I then make sure the corners are out and then sew a scant 1/4 " around the whole outside then I take pearl cotton and tie in about 6 places to hold the fabric together. I also have made a lot of these sewing different ribbons around the outside edges so when I turn them outside the ribbons have tabbies on them the babies love them. I will post picture in the picture section -- I will call them Tabbie Blankets... you can see one there..... God Bless You !
