Easy Child-Size Minky Blanket + Doll Blanket Tutorial

This week’s Snippets with Patterns By Jen tutorial is all about cozy sewing. I’m sharing how to make a child-size Minky blanket with a matching doll blanket using just 1½ yards of Minky fabric.

This is a simple, beginner-friendly project that comes together quickly and makes a wonderful handmade gift for kids — especially when paired with a favorite doll or stuffed animal.

In the video, I mention a helpful link to my 2-Minute Tips with PBJ video on changing your rotary cutter blade, which you’ll find in the description below the video. It’s especially helpful when working with Minky fabric.
