We will explain how you can easily make our Fleece tie blanket (called a Fleece tie blanket, because you don't require any sewing). We will tell you what tools you need to complete this simple project, and any other relevant information pertaining to making a Fleece tie blanket. We will also look at why Fleece is such a popular fabric, and then we will discuss on how best you can look after your Fleece tie blanket.
Firstly, we obviously need to get our hands on some Fleece fabric, so this would entail going down to your local fabric store in purchasing an amount of Fleece fabric. Depending on what the Fleece tie blanket is going to be used for the length and amount that you would need to purchase will vary. When she had decided on the Fleece tie blanket purpose, then you can purchase the correct length of material. You will need two pieces of Fleece fabric, which are equal in both size and length. Depending on how we want the end product to look, we can either purchased the same colored fabric or we can opt for different colored Fleece fabric, which will make the end product, in most cases, look better.
Once we have our product, we will only need an additional pair of scissors and some tape measure or ruler. Now, we need to place the Fleece fabric down on the table will ground and place the corresponding piece on top of it. Here, we must ensure that all four sides are matched up evenly. Once we have done this, we then use our measuring tape or ruler to measure around 5 inches in from the sides of the fabric around all four sides. We want these to be around 1 inch apart. These are what we use to tie the blankets together, so ensure that this job is done correctly. Once we have marked the strips, we can then proceed to cut them. When we are cutting the strips, make sure that you are going through both levels of Fleece material.
Once you have finished cutting around all four sides, you then simply need to take a hold of one strip of fabric and tie it to the corresponding strip of fabric on the other side. I suggest you tie every second strip before turning the blanket over and tying the rest of them together. You only need to use a simple overhand not to accomplish this. By tying every second one, the end result will look much better.
And that is how to make a Fleece tie blanket. Now to look after your Fleece tie blanket, I would suggest that you do not wash it and hot water. Hot water is an enemy of Fleece, you should always wash your Fleece products in cold water or if you must, warm water, but never hot.
As you can see, making a Fleece tie blanket is quite a simple task, and is one that can be enjoyed with both young and old alike. We hope you enjoyed this article on how to make a Fleece tie blanket.
