Hello GYCT readers!!! I'm RaeAnna over at Sewing Mama RaeAnna and I'm sharing a tutorial and pattern I made for Shannon Fabrics last month because Cuddle fabric makes the BEST baby blankets!
When I was brand new to sewing, a friend of mine was having a baby. I wanted to make her a blanket but all the tutorials I found at that time had bindings, bias tape, etc. and scared the heck out of me! I finally just tried my hand at some basic sewing techniques and her blanket turned out great! I even made a fast printout if you are new to sewing and want to start with this simple project.

A yard of Shannon Studio Cuddle™ fabric is 60 inches wide so when you order 1 yard it makes the perfect size for a baby blanket! I made this blanket by taking a yard of the Cuddle Dimple in Red and a yard of the Red/Snow Chevron - cutting them each in half so I had 30"x36" for my blanket.
Here's what you'll need to make this baby blanket:
30"x36" fabric of Cuddle Dimple in Red
30"x36" fabric of Red/Snow Chevron
Scissors
Matching Thread
Pins

Sew along the edge of the fabric and notch the corner edges with your scissors.
(Make sure you keep a 4" opening on one side for turning the fabric right side out.)
