I love Jennie. No unnecessary yakking. Just sweet and to the point. I have watched so many videos where you simplify the project. I’d love to come out to Missouri Star Quilt and chat with you. At 87 years old I’m no longer keen on long distance auto trips. But keep up the good work with you and your staff. I love your life story and your family run business. Keep well. You have a wonderful personality and a terrific sense of humor.

For WOVEN like cotton or flannel: Sew a finished hem all the way around on the larger piece BEFORE you cut the 45 angle. Just do the same method of adding the 6 inches for the border, then add an additional 1/2 inch FOR EACH SIDE. (BACKING SHOULD BE 13 INCHES LARGER TOTAL). Do this BEFORE you cut the angle corners, fold the 1/2 under and sew a single fold hem all 4 sides. That gives you finished edges with the raw edge to be inside. Then cut the 45 angle and sew as in the vid. This way all raw edges are finished so they are inside and you will have a folded edge and can use any fabric that would otherwise ravel. Then proceed with the remaining instructions. Be sure to sew that hem straight as it will show on the top of the project.

Thank you! Just made one out of flannel, with strips of flannel on the smaller one. Do you HAVE to make it square though? Couldn't you make this rectangle, just making sure you add 6" or 6-1/2" (depending on fabric) to the two different size sides?

+Charlie Wagner I would think that you certainly could do a rectangle and just make sure to maintain the same width border all the way round. If you pieced fabric you could make a large one.

Yes, you can. I made a couple the "old" way -LOL - using some tops I had already made that were rectangles. Then I just decided how wide I wanted the border when the blanket was completed and did the math. I made the border wider than in the tutorial. Love this technique. It makes making baby blanket so quick.

For you newbees out there! Stick with Jenny! I can now sew her large quilt projects and made many newborns warm and happy with this blanket! I use this technique now to make pet blankets which my friends love for their dogs and cats! Much love Jenny! Im in Canada but its on my bucket list to visit your store one day! 🤩

Want to add, I love your method of repeating things several times. I need that!

To stop the minky from moving - use a walking foot. To hide the raw edges turn 1/2 or 1 inch under before sewing the corner pieces. Then turn under while pinning between corners.

Good idea. When I sew the corners I stop 1/2" from the end and that way when I turn right side I just press the edges under before adding my center.

i just loved how you did those mitered corners. I did it without using the cuddle fabric and it was a fantastic way of doing the corners. Love you Jenny!!

This would be a great way to make placemats too with pre-quilted fabric and cotton backing. Thanks for your simple way of doing it. My favorite since I’m a beginner

You could also sew a small hem around all 4 sides of the back fabric before you cut the corners. (For all of the rest of us OCD people who just can't stand the thought of an "unfinished edge")

I made this “blanket” for our grandson to use at daycare. I use Minky I had for several years, and kept putting off making something out of it. I know Minky stretches and slides, and because of that, the blanket wasn’t perfect, but my son and daughter in law loved it! I added a pocket and embroidered his name on it with my great Babylock embroidery machine, so now he can put a favorite toy in the pocket! Killian is 16 months old and Monday he ‘graduates’ to the Toddler 1 room, so he’ll nap on a pallet and cover up with his blanket. When it arrived in the mail, he hugged it!

This was my first video watching Jenny! And fell in love with her right away! I never miss her videos!❤❤❤

Hi Jenny! This baby blanket is so easy and cute and adorable! We love how you show that it can be made in so many different ways- and with different types of Cuddle® or our Embrace® double gauze too! A few others things to note might be to let everyone know a few more insider tips ;): they can use a stretch needle, a longer stitch length, and a walking foot or even feed foot- if they have one. Thanks for another great Cuddle sewing tutorial! Hugs with Cuddle®

Hello! How to buy this fabric?

I totally agree with the previous post - my oldest granddaughter is 12 - youngest 2 - I work at JoAnn Fabrics - I had the worst luck with minky, lost count of how many projects I threw away - after watching this tutorial I've made 6. Further, the Missouri Start Quilt Company instructors don't have the "chat chat chat" about inane details. These are straight forward, easy to follow, and I'm able to print the pdf to take to my machine with me!!

Jenny I am so glad I found this new way to bind these receiving blankets as I am going to have 5 new great grand child between January and February of 2019 and I need all help I can get. I love your tutorials. I am learning so much from you. Thank you

Ohhh I love this, looks so easy. I have been wanting to make blankets to donate to project Linus & to the hospitals in my area this will make it very easy. 😍 I love cuddle fabric.

LOVE your tutorials!! They/YOU are so easy to follow and understand. You gave me a FLASHBACK with the "losing" the pin comment. I have BIG long hair and my acupuncture dr. would always have one NEEDLE stuck in the TOP of my head to complete something "the circle? . His FIRST time to put one in the top of my head was a regular sized one and he LOST IT- couldn't find it with all my hair in the way-it's naturally big n curly, from that day on he used the LONG needle in the top of my head. This is my second time watching this. Got people we know having BABIES so I have to FRESHEN up my memory on how to do these. Sewing ain't my best talent. SCIENCE and Chemistry are , and THEY are so much easier. They should give SEWING an ENGINEERING name b/c of it's difficulty level. I'd LOVE to see an engineer attempt sewing!!!

Thank you for this tutorial, Jenny! Today I took the plunge and made a self binding baby quilt with your terrific instructions. I'll use this method from now on. Quite proud of myself!

I wish I could thumbs this up a million times. I think I found my first sewing project. Took you 10 minutes, will take me 3 hours. Haha!

I made one with chenille and flannel as a baby gift. I love the easy version you've shared. Thank you!

i watch ALOT of your videos - YOU ARE A WONDERFUL TEACHER

Thank you for the tutorial, very helpful! I was grateful for the clear explanation of how cut the corners off using the 45* angle. Love the way mine turned out!

I was at the Smithtown Stitchers (NY) show this past weekend and I saw a lovely quilt that Missouri Start Quilt Co had quilted. It was a beautiful quilting job, and when I make a larger quilt, you'll be my long arm quilter of choice.

It is great that you find out how to make this even easier! Thank you! I love your videos Jenny! It just arrive in the perfect time, one of my friends is receiving a baby pretty soon!

Suggestion: when giving these as gifts, offer them in two different sizes. First size for a newborn to six months, the second size much larger. That blanket they will bond to and drag around the house until they're age 10. Otherwise "blankie" gets small way too fast and the fabric is impossible to obtain by the time you realize your child has an attachment to a particular blanket or quilt. Qute project. Thumbs up.

Absolutely awesome! Went to do a self binding baby blanket and found this, even easier then before! 💖

You give me confidence just by your to the point instructions, Thank You

Fun project to make, thanks Jenny! To anyone making it, I would recommend pressing the border down before putting the center in, and using wonder clips instead of pins. Also, before doing the corners, I did a 1/2 in. hem stitch all the way round (as a commenter recommended, because I'm OCD about raw edges lol!) and I sewed along the corner pocket 45 degree line before I cut the corner. That way, if you make an error and have to take out the seam, you haven't ruined the fabric.

@celinevukson8754

What is OCD that many are expressing. I ‘m confused: some are talking stretchy and unravelling material. Can you explain further on the last 45-degree cutting and stitching. Also does turning under 1/2 inches all around makes the center fabric smaller? Newie at this.

OMG Jenny, Even easier than the first blanket you taught me in flannel. Love it.

i love it, that pins had a life. no matter how famous jenny's become she still reuses those pins till there's no life left. thank you jenny for staying humble. love the tutorial as well. that technique looks like it should work with the border brought over when using your backing with any fabric

This fabric and and I are not friends. I went on the Cuddle site and did everything that they said: stretch needle, larger stitch length, using my walking foot, etc. it helped but it did not help the experience. I am just going to have to say no Cuddle fabric for me. I found it disappointingly frustrating to sew with.

This has to be the easiest project that I've seen on here, and I love the fabrics!

Thank you Jenny! I had a little PUL (waterproof) fabric left over from baby sewing, so I took a 20 inch square and a complimentary flannel print and made a diaper changing pad. The entire pad is about 25 inches square. The waterproof area is the smaller piece, but it is 20 inches square, and the rest of the pad is two layers of flannel, so it is better protection than tossing down one or two single-layer diapers on a changing table. I made a second one a little bigger. I figure these would be great for diaper bag equipment, or to have handy to toss on a changing table when you know a poopy diaper is about to be changed. My daughter was gifted with a super-cute diaper changing pad cover, and I thought these would protect it. I am definitely going to make more, not only waterproof ones. Pretty baby gift! Thank you, again, Jenny. Your tutorials are a godsend.

Have you done this technique as a rectangle? Same or some alteration to the formula?

I believe when Jenny says to make sure your fabric is square what she means is you have 90 degree corners.

OMG I LOVE THIS CONSTRUCTION OF THIS BLANKETS

Fell in love with this idea, now after reading the pattern and watching this tutorial I can't wait to do this tomorrow!!!

Placemats? What an ideal? Did you use the 3 inch concept?

I made one in flannels. I made the larger piece one inch larger in both directs. I ironed 1/2” under on all four sides and then proceeded as Jenny did. One line of stitches gives a beautiful finished edge

I am teaching my granddaughters to sew. We made flannel blankets. We used iron on hem tape to turn the edges under. It worked great. Then they were able to use the fancy stitching on the top of the blanket without seeing the other stitches. The flannel was easier to work with the cuddle fabric. We will try cuddle next time.

Thanks for the tips. I am going to start one of these today for a new nephew. I am going to use flannel, as well, cause that is what I have. I think I will try to embroider his name on it as well. Did you do anything, besides the binding, to hold the two pieces of fabric together, such as line stitching across it, or a design, or does it stay together pretty well?

I would love a video about how to cut the big squares.

I was wondering the same thing

Cuddle cloth is not my friend, I’m sad to say. I know it has a fan following, but I am going to have to be in the minority on this one. I made the first self binding baby quilt with the Cuddle cloth and have never been so disappointed...and it was expensive fabric! It’s the devil to sew with. So I stopped, watched more KZread’s, read everything I could about sewing with Cuddle cloth, and tried again. It was better but still did not suit me as “gift- giving quality”....my problem, I realize. I think, Jenny, you had a little difficulty as well, as you really didn’t show-off the self binding quilt you sewed; you put it under the desk and brought out another. I am determined to finish one baby blanket that I would be happy to give as a gift. But I know, that I will never sew with that fabric again...for me, sewing is a joy...not the frustration this experience was. I just wanted to be up-front with folks about the fabric. I love your KZread instructions; enjoyed the retreat at MSQC and all the great shopping; I think BLOCK magazine is superior to all other quilt magazines on the market; MSQC simply rocks! But I going to part ways with this fabric. I think I will try a flannel and see what happens. Wish me luck!

Around the outside of the puff blanket, I just made all the puffs...sewed together...but then, cut the ends of the puffs all around to 3 inches. I didn't place any poly in the pockets on the side. It turned out so nice and pretty!! I would like to add a little poly to puff it up around the edges a bit, but was afraid it wouldn't work out looking nice. maybe next time! Thanks again!

Great idea, love the subtitles on the screen, and no unnecessary talking at the beginning, Jenny just gets on with it.

I was looking for your old video on how to do this when I came across this newer version. I’m a single mom with 3 kiddos and this year was super hard financially. I’ve had to work though my stash to make presents for Christmas this year and thought I had 2 fabrics to get this done. Well, I was mistaken and only my fleece was large enough so it had to be only layer. After watching this video I figured I could use this technique to sew up a single layer of fleece and it turned out beautifully and was so quick! Thank you so much for these videos. 💕
