I want to make my blanket using the chevron fabric like in the following tutorial:

I've never made a chenille blanket before so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I have the cutter and it was a nice tool to have. I did not do chevron, just diagonal lines.
i have seen pattern where lines are sewn 1" apart and I don't like the look of that as well. Keep them 1/2 to 3/4. It's a lot of work (time consuming) but so cute.... I have only done baby sized. Probably won't do anything bigger than that. Have fun...
