NO SEW FLEECE LAP BLANKET

NO SEW FLEECE LAP BLANKET
I made this for my Grandma for Christmas and it is great to chase away the chill while chillin' on the couch at home or in the car a cold car before it warms up.

All you need is:

1 yd of fleece for the top
1 yd of fleece for the bottom
1 pair of scissors
1 popsicle stick
straight pins - optional

The total cost to make this was under $10.

Lay the fabric out on a flat surface with the wrong sides together and the front sides facing away from each other.

You could pin it together if you wanted to or if you don't have a table that is big enough to lay out the fabric flat and you have to do it in sections.

You then use the popsicle stick to measure how wide and how deep to cut - take your scissors and cut on both sides of the stick up to the top of the stick.

You don't mention how to handle the corners. You need to completely cut a couple off the corners so it doesn't bulk up. Here's the link: http://collectibles.about.com/od/valuableresources/ss/blfleecethrow_4.htm
Other than that, nicely done. I like the colors!
