Supplies Needed:

• A pair of good scissors (If your scissors are dull, it will take a lot longer to complete!) OR rotary cutter and mat
• Ruler or tape measure
• Fleece . . . • for a baby or toddler, purchase 1 to 1 1/4yard • for a child, purchase 1 1/3 to 1.5 yards • for a teen or adult, purchase 1.75 yards

Directions:

1. Cut off rough selvage edge on both sides. (This is the side that is machine finished, not cut.) Trim only as much as necessary, usually not more than 2 inches on each side. At this point, make sure that your cut sides are relatively straight. (They don't have to be perfect!) Do this on each piece of fabric.
2. For tied fringe Cut a 5x5" square out of each corner and discard. If you want your fringe longer (not recommended for a baby or toddler), make your square bigger. It really does help to cut out your square from each corner before proceeding.
3. OR For "bunny ear" fringe, cut a 4X4 square out of each corner and discard.
4. For tied fringe measure 5” from the edge of each side and mark with masking tape. For "bunny ear" fringe measure 4" from the edge of each side and mark with masking tape.
5. Cut into fleece at 1" intervals around all four sides, using the masking tape to tell you how deep to make the cuts.
6. Tie fringe pieces into overhand knots close to blanket edge. Repeat around all four sides.
7. OR For "bunny ear" fringe:
   • Cut the fringe a bit wider, around 1 Ό “.
   • Cut a small slit at the base of each fringe piece and pull the fringe through it to create an “ear”.
