"alternative"/"no
sew" blankets:
Go to the fabric store and see who wide they have fleece in....try
to get it wide enough for a bed (see the sizings below).
Cut the fabric to that size and call it a blanket
or
Cut the fabric 6 inches longer and 12 inches wider and cut in 6
inches on the sides and bottom and call it a blanket
If the fleece is not wide enough you can cut them 12" larger
than 1/4 the blanket size, cut fringe on all 4 sides and tie the pieces togther
to create a piece big enough for the bed.
NO SEW BLANKETS:
