No sew fleece - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I refuse to be outdone.....if someone's husband can make a cute heart shaped blanket I should be able to figure out how to make a no sew fleece bed. I bought some nice leopard print fleece today and have some great soft european pillows that I wanted to cover with the fleece for Delilah's bed. So you ladies, or husbands,

tell me, is there a secret to this or just cut the size I need x 2 and tie the fringe together? I wonder what the trick is to keep the pillow forms from showing through at the seams.

I tried making a tie fleece blanket and I failed miserably. I think I cut my strips wrong.

I wish you luck

I have googled this before, and there are a lot of instructional websites...

If you are covering a pillow, it should be very similar to a blanket, shove the pillow in and continue to tie....

I always wondered how do you know how long and wide to you make the strips to be tied? Good luck making your blanket.

You should cut your strips 3-4 inches long. Also tie tight knots, so your pillow won't show through.

Any questions, just shoot me a PM.
