How to Make a Button Blanket

Creating a button blanket is an enjoyable way to blend functionality with style. These blankets often feature colorful patterns and a variety of buttons that serve both as decoration and fasteners. Here’s a detailed guide on making your own button blanket:

  1. Choose Your Fabric: Start by selecting two pieces of fabric—the main piece for the blanket and a backing. Popular choices include soft fleece or cotton for comfort and ease of handling.

  2. Cut to Size: Decide on the size of your blanket and cut both pieces of fabric to match. Common dimensions for a throw blanket are 5 feet by 4 feet.

  3. Arrange Your Buttons: Lay out your buttons on the main piece of fabric to plan your design. You can create rows, random patterns, or themed designs with your buttons.

  4. Sew the Buttons: Using a strong thread, sew each button through both layers of fabric. This not only decorates the blanket but also helps keep the two layers together.

  5. Finish the Edges: Sew the edges of your blanket with a sewing machine or by hand to ensure they are secure and look neat.
