This is the best baby blanket video! Quick, to the point and simple to reference while sewing. My corners and mitered edge did not look like the one online, but as a novice, I absolutely love it. It took me the better part of an afternoon and into the late evening to finish this project. I used 41x41 and 36x36 baby flannel on both sides. I did not use contrasting material and my end project size, after 3 washings, was a bit shy of 37x37 with a 1 inch mitered border. A perfect square! My corners looked beautifully puckered or pleated with an additional amount of material. That is art! I'm going to make 2 more.

Will it work with batting? Cuz i want to try this and have it be fluffier but unsure 🫤

I just made this blanket for my toddler and it came out perfect! You have to trust the process and it will all make sense each step further. If you’re having trouble with the corners this is the best way I can explain it. Lay your inside out fabric, working with one corner at a time so the center fabric is flat and you can see your border. Fold up from the bottom to line up the edges of the fabric like she did in the video. When marking your mitered corners, use the edge of the center fabric as a guide and draw a straight line down to make a 90° angle. You won’t be able to see the center fabric but you will feel where it is. Then from that straight line down, again feel for the edge of the center fabric as your guide, draw a line down the middle of that triangle to make your 45° angle and sew down that line. Cut the excess away and it will all make sense when you turn it right side out.

Nope! You can use whatever size diapers you want to gift. I recommend Size 2 because they grow out of those newborn sizes so quickly!

Yes, when she marks the 45 degree angle, sews, and cuts the excess, is that for every corner or just one? And if just one, does it matter which?

Sewing the fabrics together is SO confusing. It’s way too fast. I’ve spent an hour trying to understand why my fabric is bunching in the middle when I see the sides. Im supposed to line up the smaller fabric with the larger outside piece on the middle marks but this doesn’t work. I’m out of ideas. 😢

Totally agree- it is so confusing how to sew the smaller piece to the larger piece. What does she mean it will bunch up and its ok??? Its not ok. How do you make the smaller piece attach to the smaller piece without making ruffles ??? !!!????

I found this tutorial excellent. I make receiving blankets for newborns in my young neighborhood. I’ve just been using two pieces of flannel the same size but I like the idea of the blanket edge. I’d seen it before but needed a refresher. This was perfect. It may be a little confusing to beginners. Missouri Star Quilt Company has a similar tutorial that might be easier for newbies to follow.

I made this!!!!! My measurements were about 53"x33" - I had to do some math since hers was a square and mines a rectangle. I used flannel back, cotton front. First blanket ever and I had a friend teach me to use my sewing machine. I also added some batting, I sewed it in after seeing the two fabrics together first. So it has like triple stiching in all seams, more durable. Great tutorial thank you.
@carolg.6838Ай бұрын
Good for you! If the batting is loose between the layers, like if you didn't quilt the top through all 3 layers to hod them together, the batting could get damaged over time. The batting package will tell you how far apart to quilt. Like maybe 4 inches apart to 10" apart, depending on type of batting. The quilting is usually done before borders are applied as the stitching ca n shrink the top A easy method at this point would be to tie it rather than sew. Look it up. You cana maybe mark a grid with painters tape then tie the middle of each fabric "square" (not through the tape) and remove the tape when done. Welcome to the sewing and quilting world!

Can you make it with minky on the back?
@vollyballgirl25718 күн бұрын
You can, I think you just have to use a different ironing method, setting it to synthetic temp and maybe using another fabric like a scrap of cotton to use as a buffer so the iron doesn't melt the minky fabric. That's what I'm planning on doing with this pattern because I've seen a lot of other people make it with minky
