What to do with a pile of old kids t-shirts and jeans when you have a week off work? Raggy blanket!
Lots of six inch squares, cut with a roller cutter. It's super sharp so I managed to cut my finger at the start of the project.
Then sew 12 in a line with 1cm edge on the right side. Clip the corners at 45 degrees, so that it's not too bulky when it all gets sewn together. Iron it flat, see below.
Make 9 rows then sew them together, with a 1 cm edge on the right side. When you have a rectangle you just need to sew on a back sheet having first sandwiched in thick fleece or quilting fluffy stuff. Then spend a couple of hours clipping all of the edges into fringes. Voila!
