Tape Paper clips Clip two fabrics together with a paper clip. Fold the fabrics up about an inch and a half and tape along one side. Cut until you reach the top (solid green). One inch cuts after un-taping it. One side tied off. How to make a fleece tie baby blanket Go to a fabric store like JoAnne's Fabric, and choose two rolls of fleece fabric that you would like for your blanket. I prefer a pattern and a solid. (One blanket uses two pieces of fleece fabric-one for each side; you could use the same pattern on both sides of the blanket. I prefer two different patterns.) The fleeces should be the same except for the pattern; i.e., don't use different thicknesses or textures. You also want to make sure the fleece isn't too thick or it will be really difficult to cut. Have an attendant cut your fabrics equally so you don't have to re-cut later. I chose to have each piece of fleece cut to one yard in the above blankets. If you want a larger blanket or smaller blanket, cut accordingly. I thought the one yard size was perfect. At home, lay the blankets down evenly on top of each other, and clip them together so they don't move (see picture). Choose a side to begin and fold the two fabrics up about an inch and a half and use four or five pieces of tape to secure it along this side. Make sure that it is even (see picture). Begin cutting along the folded piece up to the edge of where the fold ends. Bring your scissors just past the end of the fold. Make your cuts about an inch apart so your strips will be about an inch in thickness. Continue until you finish the entire side. Be sure to cut evenly. Begin tying the two fabrics together. The pieces that were cut together are tied together. It's easy to get off a tie, so pay attention so you don't have to go back and untie. Continue on for the remaining three sides. The corners can be a bit tricky. Cut as you did the first side and cut off any ties that look awkward on the corners so that you have a right angle. Tie a bow around the blanket and you have a great homemade baby gift! ~for mom, use a larger size materials~ //~_~\\
