DIRECTIONS:
NOTE: Finish size 40"x 60"
- Pre-wash fabric. Iron flannel. Cut flannel 1 @ 35"x 55". Mark centers of each side. Mark 1/2" from each corner.
- Cut Sherpa 1 @ 41"x 61", mark centers of sides.
- Cut Sherpa 2 @ 4"x 42" and 2 @ 4"x 62", mark centers of lengths.
- Right sides together match centers of Sherpa 4" strips with corresponding sides of flannel (35" side flannel with 42" strip of Sherpa, 55" side of flannel with 62" strip of Sherpa). Pin in place.
- Sew Sherpa strips to flannel using 1/2" seam allowance starting and stopping a 1/2" from each corner. Fold flannel at a diagonal at each corner matching opposite side edges of Sherpa. Mark a diagonal line extending at 45 degree angle from seam corner to outer edge of Sherpa, an extension of the angle created by the fold in the flannel. Sew Sherpa border strips together on the angle. Trim excess to 1/2". Trim corners square.
- Match the Sherpa 41"x 61" panel with flannel/Sherpa 41"x 61" panel, right sides together. Pin leaving 9" open to turn.
- Keep corner seams open. Sew around the blanket edge using 1/2" seam allowance and leaving the 9" opening to turn. Trim corners to reduce bulk.
- Turn blanket right side out. Fold in opening to match seam. Hand stitch opening closed.
