Simple DIY Striped Picnic Blanket

Simple DIY Striped Picnic Blanket

We’ve already told you about cool picnic blankets, and today I’d like to add one more idea to the list, and it’s a tutorial from sewdiy.com. Prepare 2 yards ticking or shirting fabric, 2 yards terry cloth, thread, a sewing machine. Cut ticking/shirting fabric 45 inches wide. From leftover ticking fabric, cut 4 squares 8 x 8 inches and 2 strips 36 x 2 inches. Fold square on the diagonal and top stitch .25 inch from fold. If you’re using a striped fabric, it looks cool to have the stripes going in opposing directions at the corners. To make sure your corner pieces will work, turn the stack wrong side up with all the stripes in the same direction. Head over to sewdiy.com to keep reading.
