When buying fabric to make fleece blankets, get one with a plaid background, to save time in measuring for making the fringe around the edges. Use the width of your thumb for the width of each fringe, and the length of the scissors to the length of the fringe.
This way you don't have to measure using a ruler and marker, just follow the lines of the fabric. A great time saver.
By cutting down the time of making the fringe, you can make twice as many blankets for gifts to family and friends or to donate to children through Project Linus (www.projectlinus.org).
Editor's Note: They have a great link for patterns.
