    I made Doug a no-sew fleece blanket for Christmas, and got fleece to make one for Deana-- only problem is. . her's is a picture panel for the front, and if I cut it to make the ties, then it messes up the picture.

    So. . . how do I make this? Sew it? Punch holes and lace small strips of fleece to tie? Crochet and edging?

    Sorry submitted before I typed. If this doesn't help, look around on their site. They have lots of stuff about fleece.

    Sure you could crochet it together and make it a border too. You could also just attach the 2 pieces with the blanket stitch and some needlepoint or crewel thread/yarn.

    Don't forget to show us what you did!

    I'd sew around the edge of the picture and then cut strips if there is enough fabric to do that with. If not I'd do what Dee suggested.
