One of my favorite things in the winter is to curl up with a warm  blanket and a good book or a movie. All of my kids have picked up my  habit, so we need a lot of blankets in our house.

I made some DIY fleece blankets so that I could teach you how to finish the edges six different ways. Which one is your favorite?
