How to Make A No-Sew Fleece Blanket
Illustrator, surface designer and mom (to the cutest babies we’ve ever seen) Natalie Malan stops by the blog today to show us how simple it is to make a cozy Fleece blanket — no sewing required! To make this blanket, Natalie printed one yard of new, low loft, double-faced Fleece using a watercolor design she created herself. This super simple blanket is perfect for spring picnics, adding a pop of color to your couch or bed, or swaddling a sweet little one! Check out her video tutorial below to find out how you can make one, too.
