SUPPLIES NEEDED FOR A SCALLOP FLEECE BLANKET
- fleece
- scissors and ruler, OR cutting mat, rotary cutter and straight edge
How much fleece do you need for a blanket?
Here's my suggestion:
Baby blanket - 1 yard (will make 2) Child Blanket - 1 1/2 yard
Adult / Teen Blanket - 2 yards
HOW TO MAKE A FLEECE BLANKET WITH A SCALLOPED EDGE
The first step is to straighten any wonky edges from when they cut the fabric at the store.You'll also want to remove selvage edge.
This is a single layer blanket.
Begin by cutting a two inch square from each corner of the fleece.
Next measure every two inches and make a cut. The cut should be 2 inches deep.
Tip: Use a piece of masking tape to mark two inches, then all the cuts will be the same length. If you don't have a cutting mat, you can make markings on the tape every two inches to use as your cutting guide. Work in sections and move the tape as needed.
Next, simply cut a curve along the bottom of each strip. You can see my first few attempts were somewhat uneven.
As I went I learned that just rounding the corners each strip helped me keep the cuts more uniform and tidy.
