How to make a baby blanket in Minky fabric?

DIY has the coast and especially among young parents ! This is also usually THE moment when moms and dads take it for granted that a birth disrupts everything ...

Today we offer you a sewing tutorial to make a blanket for baby Minky , he or she will be comfortably installed in this blanket very soft (and super pretty in passing).

No baby but adept Netflix evenings under a plaid with a good tea ? This tutorial is also for you! You just need to slightly increase the dimensions.

For this tutorial we have chosen to associate it with Atelier Brunette's terracotta gun fabric , discover all the fabrics to give your cover to your interior, and yes the details are important!

Spoiler alert : this t utoriel Beginner sewing does not present any difficulty except perhaps the slight elasticity of the Minky fabric, so we advise you to pin your fabric without pulling (the longest step).

For a baby blanket you will need a standard size of 75x100 (we have everything in the basket at the bottom of the page), your child will keep it for a long time!

Steps :

• Step 1 : Measure and trace with a 80x105 seam chalk on the Atelier Brunette double gauze fabric and on the Minky fabric (a little wider because we count the seam).
• Step 2 : Pin right side down about 5 cm from the edge without pulling on the Minky fabric.
• Step 3 : Take your sewing machine and sew all sides taking care not to pull to "deform" the Minky fabric. Leave an opening about 10 cm to return the cover.
• Step 4 : turn over your blanket, taking care to define the corners
• Step 5 : Finish with an invisible seam!

And here is your cover is over! Easy no? Everything is ready for the arrival of baby ... or for your evening movie :)
