Tutorial: 30-minute family-sized blanket

Marissa from Rae Gun Ramblings shows how you can make this large blanket for the whole family to snuggle under. It’s a quick project, one she says you can complete in 30 minutes. It’s made from a single layer of fleece, with edges finished in a contrasting bias tape. This would make a nice addition to a den or family room. This would make a great gift to give to a whole family (rather than individual presents for each family member).
