I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Thanks for posting this, after seeing the one pictured in Bchgirls thread, http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/my-...-portrait.html, I'm really interested in them too, I thought you had to buy the kits, and I didn't realize you could make them out of your own material. I hope you let us know how your doing on the project, and if you have any tips.

| Oh, this is a great link and thank you for starting this thread. I found several different sites that I've saved but this one is much better. We have a great fabric store (local) with really good prices and I hope to start on mine this week. I think they're adorable and they would also make great gifts.

| They are really easy to make. The big blankets take awhile though and require a large floor to lay it out on. The good thing about making these kind of blanket is that they don't have to be "perfect" to still look good. There is almost no way you can make a mistake on this.

| My mom was helping me with one that I made for my grandfather and she's left handed and I'm right... I was on one of the long ends tying and she was on the shorter ends. She's almost done, then my aunt pops in and says "You two are tying it differently." She was making her knots backwards from mine... I told her to just do the other short end the same way she did the first one and then I'd do the other long end and it worked out. You don't even have to measure anything (even though I do, cause I'm anal). It's great!

We'll I can't find a fabric store in the area. I was able to get a Rotarty Cutting board it looks like it will help with measuring the fringes and I got a rotarty cutting tool. Now I just need my fabric. Guess I will have to keep looking. | |

| I've made a lot of these and in fact just bought more fleece to make two more. They are fun and soooo easy to make. Just don't tie too tight or they won't lay right.

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | HI Everyone, I found some NO Sew Fleece throws on Joann.com. They come in 48' and 72'. They also come with whatever print you want and one matching solid. They are on sale right now for $9.99. It says regulary $19.99. I am not sure if I am allowed to post link. I bought 3 prints I can't wait until they arrive. They have a couple different monkey prints for those who love monkeys. |
