Baby Tag Blanket Tutorial
Step 1 – Cut the elements for the tag blanket
Taking the remaining strips from the cuddle strip kit, cut them to length. In the example, I cut four strips to 19 inches in length. Be sure to save your scraps for future projects.
Cut the backing either from cuddle fabric or satin to match the front (taking into account a half-inch seam allowance between the strips). So, for a back of 19-inch strips, it would be 19 inches by 17 inches.
Cut ribbons for the tags or taggies to four inches in length, and set them aside.
Step 2 – Assemble the front of the blanket
Assemble the front for your baby tag blanket.
Sew the strips together using a half-inch seam allowance.
Since cuddle fleece can stretch unevenly when sewn, even out the front edges and cut the strips to the same width.
Loop the ribbons in half before attaching them to the blanket.
Since the ribbons will be tugged on a lot, we’re going to make them extra sturdy and sew them on before attaching the back. Fold the ribbons in half and pin them onto the edge of the cuddle fabric, with the tops facing inward.
Sew it on using a half-inch seam allowance.
Step 3 – Add the back to the blanket
With the right sides together and the ribbons sandwiched in-between, add the backing to the baby tag blanket.
(either cuddle fabric or satin)
and sew around with a halfinch seam allowance
with a three inch gap for turning.
Turn right-side out.
Sew the gap shut.
Then, with a half-inch seam allowance, sew around the blanket using a serpentine or other decorative stitch all the way around to set the blanket.
And that’s it! Your Baby Tag Blanket is finished!
