No Tie Fleece Blankets

These no sew fleece blankets have been around forever it seems.  They are great cuddle blankets and so soft and warm.  This is not a post on how to do it, just a different way to do it. One that is easier, even the kids can help and I think it holds up better too.

I started with one for a gift a couple weeks ago and it has just escalated from there.  4 more for my kids, 1 for me and then I helped a friend with a couple for her girls and for her as well.  They whip up really fast!  And the kids (5 and older) all loved helping! It was so fun to see them working together on each others blankets.

(yes, that is my 11 yr old son working away on it)

I saw this a while back and cannot remember where, but instead of tying, after you cut your strips, just make a little slit and pull the ends thru. (ignore the different matierials...I am just trying to use the best pictures so you get the idea)
