flannel baby blanket
I need ideas for a flannel baby blanket, has any one taken just the flannel yardage and made the blanket from the whole piece and not cut into squares or strips? I am open to any ideas and suggestions.
Thanks. |
Yes I've done that. I used a yard of cotton and a yard of flannel and birthed it without batting. I quilted it by starting at one edge and sewing 1 1/2" from the edge all the way across until 1 1/2" from the next edge, pivoting to sew the next line, etc. until I got to the middle. Very easy, very quick and it's been one of my DDs favorite blankets to use for her kids.

Take a look at the MSQC self binding receiving blanket:

My friend use to make what are called receiving blanket. She use to do decorative stitching around the edge.

two pretty fabrics and just some plain stitching in the middle to hold them together. unless of course, you're a talented LA'er.
|
I've also tied a flannel baby quilt. Sometimes those little ones like to touch and feel the little ties.
