Make a No-Sew Throw for Halloween or Anytime!
 |
It's So Easy to Make this Craft... it's Spooky!
Two simple polar fleece
panels come together without a single stitch to create a cuddly throw
perfect for crisp fall weather -- and scary stories! This is a great family
craft project. Anyone who can tie a knot can join in!
See our easy no-sew pillow decorating project idea, too!

| But
it's not just for Halloween. With the great variety of polar fleece patterns
and preprinted panels available, you can make this fun craft project for just
about any occasion, from Christmas to baby showers. It's quick, easy and
really impressive -- even for the most craft-challenged among us!
Materials:
2 Polar fleece panels cut to the same size, we chose 2 complementary patterns
with spooky jack-o'-lanterns (from Jo-Ann's Fabrics and Crafts)
Scissors or Pinking Shears
Rotary fabric cutter (optional)
Cutting pad (optional)
Ruler

Step
1
Cut the two panels to the same size, allowing in your design 4" all
around for cutting 4" fringes. We cut the panels to size using pinking
shears to get a jagged edge.
Note:
Polar fleece stretches one way and not the other, make sure both panels
stretch along the same length when cutting.

Step 2
Align the two panels together, back to back, and cut fringes down one
side, through both fabric thicknesses. We used a rotary cutter, but scissors
are fine, too. We cut fringe 4" long and the width of our ruler (1-1/4").
Fringe cut to about 1" to 1.5" in width works best for this
craft project.
Note:
When you get to the corners, you will cut the corner square completely
out.

Step 3
Starting on one end of the cut fringe, tie together one front fringe with
one back fringe, tightening the knot so it holds the front an back panel
securely together.
A square knot works best, and tie them all in the same direction (right
over left, left over right) for a consistent finish. Continue tying knots
down the full side.
Step 4
Repeat Steps 2 and 3 on the other three sides until complete... and curl
up and enjoy!
