    Tip for sewing openings: instead of starting on the seam, start at the edge of the fabric, sew a few stitches to the seam, pivot, then sew around the object. When you get to the other side of the opening, pivot and sew to the edge. After turning, this helps the seam to turn under. It will look like this: __________________| |_____________________.

    Made each of my three grandchildren 30" long crocodile stuffed animals using Minky, top and bottom. The stretching, slipping and shedding was so frustrating. Because that wasn't enough punishment and I over estimated the amount of Minky to purchase so had a lot left over and wanted it out of my home, I then also made three blankets for them. By the time I got to the blankets, I think I pinned every 1/4 to 1/2 inch and it was still, shall we say, challenging. Promised myself I never, ever had to sew with Minky again. If only I had known this 10-12 years ago! I hope everyone who wants to sew with Mindy sees this video. Excellent.

    When I saw your video, I said no way no how does this really work. Well, not only does it work, it is the most GENIUS thing I have seen. I watch the full video, then I proceeded to make my adult son a blanket, using 2.5 yards of fabric for top and bottom. Trimmed and cut as you said to do and then smoothed it out and smoothed again. Then out came the Press N Seal. Beginning to end 3 hours. You are a genius and I cannot thank you enough for sharing this hack with us. Genius. Genius. I will never go back to tying those blankets.

      I’m with you! I’m cleaning out my craft/sewing room and came across a ton of kinky fabric I forgot I had. I had about decided to donate it. Now I’m definitely keeping it! I keep editing this because the further I go into the video, I think of another idea. You could make an sensory blanket and keep the press in seal on the edges before turning it. For older babies they would love the crinkly sound it make. Unless it dissolves in the wash. I’ll have to try this!

    This is such a clever idea! Thank for sharing with us. I've worked with minky too but only one baby quilt which was super tricky but mostly scarves. This would be so helpful in making the infinity scarves as well. I re-watched the beginning & noticed you did include the size for the doll quilt but I couldn't see the measurements the baby quilt. Is there a way to find that? Thank you!
