Thank you so much for this video. Due to arthritis In my wrists I can do very little with my right hand, I have to wear a brace to reduce the pain. I can actually do this with the brace on my wrist.
I know this is from 2018 but still had to comment - what a great method, great video, and project. Most importantly thank you for being an inspiration to others who may have a disability, injury, illness or other thing that keeps them from participating in life -
I love this way of connecting the fleece. The ties lay nice and flat without the bulk that a knot creates. Thank you for sharing this technique with us!
I can’t sew and I’ve seen other fleece blankets and this looks so much neater than the knot blankets. Your directions were simple. I can’t wait to try it!
I am in a wheelchair and my hands don't work full but after watching other ways to tie with my daughter, ur way is soo much easier and faster! We finished her project in a matter of minutes and she enjoyed it much more!! She can't wait to make more now!
This is exactly what I have needed. I have arthritis in both hands, my back and in my spine and this will allow me to do a fleece quilt that I need towards the end of March of 2023. Now the fun part, selecting two fleece fabrics.
My left wrist broke 2 yrs ago so my destroyed nerves = clumsiness which prevents the beautiful projects that were once made. I love, love, love, your generously shared video! Now I have a beautiful simpler than usual baby gift to make!
I have Rhuematoid Arthritis, along several other forms of arthritis, so tying a lot of knots would be challenging for me too. This looks like a great technique for me. Thanks for a quick & easy craft project!!
Thanks Dear! This is wonderful. My daughter and I make tons of fleece blankets to donate to our local humane society. We’ve been fostering for years. I used to make a cardboard template for her when she was younger and we tied tons of knots. I am so happy I found this video. Thank you for sharing. Sending you a warm hug...I have fibromyalgia and at times those darned knots are a problem.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I just found your TH-cam channel and I had to subscribe based on this video. I used to make these for gifts, but I have developed neuropathy in my hands. It makes it very difficult to tie knots...or do a lot of things. I can't wait to see more of your videos. Thank you so much for sharing. I really appreciate you.
I can;t thank you enough for your wonderful instructions and the way you made this project easy. With MS, I was hoping I could find an easy way to finish the project for my grandson - and you provided it!! Thank you so much!!!
Great job on the quilt. I'm super glad that you're showing folks without 100% use of their hands how to make blankets! I'm going to show this video to my granddaughters who are six and eight years old and get them started on there blankets tomorrow. Thanks again for the video. Great job!
This is Perfect! 👍 I just became a Great-Grandma for the first time and my arthritis is no fun, but this looks like I might be able to handle it. Thanks so much for sharing this! I'm going to make her a blanket 👍👍👍
Knowing how long your ties will be depending on the size of that square cut helped problem solve some dilemmas. Thank you for this very quick and brilliant tutorial instead of tying our edges. Hugs to you!
Love this technique! Thanks so much. I'm making one for my grandson and didn't know where to start as far as tying the knots. I've watched a few other channels but your's is the best! I also watch your quilting videos, trying to get up the nerve to make my first quit. Thanks so much Cheryl!!!
Bless your heart for all that you do. Having shoulder problems and that really interferes with cutting fabric….you always give great information and make it easy for us.
Thanks for this wonderful project. I will do it for my grandchildren. Summer is coming and there will be fleece on special to buy. Cant wait. Cheryl I like all of your projects and your Manny is adorable. Love from South Africa
Oh So Happy to see your "no sew-no knot" fleece blanket technique! I have RA. in fingers of both hands and in wrists and very severe, painful carpal tunnel syndrome extending to both elbows with almost no feeling in my fingers decreasing my ability to hold on to things and use as I once did, including tying. I have 5 young great-grandkids for whom I have been wanting to make this type of blanket. With the technique and scissors you have shown, I believe the kids will have blankets next to their stockings this Christmas. Thank you!
I'm SO happy I found this video! I have a few no sew blankets to make and I'm DEFINITELY going to do it the way that you instructed! Thank you so much for sharing this!
Oh my goodness!! Thank you for sharing! What a wonderful and easy way to knot these fleece blankets! I think I'm gonna enjoy making one of these again.I made a fleece blanket for my husband years ago when he was in Afghanistan and it took me forever to knot the darn thing. Anyway,, it was worth it. I think this time around it will go a little faster now that you showed me how to do it. Thanks again!!!
Wonderful tutorial! I love your method. So much easier and you’re a delight to watch. I also liked that you asked for subscribers at the end and then talked them thru it. 😊
Thank you for this easy method and detailed and clear explanation. I have been crafting for years and only made one fleece blanket a few years ago. I wasn't pleased with how it turned out. I recently bought a no sew fleece kit at my local fabric store. Their instructions were confusing. I will follow your instructions and plan to have a beautiful holiday throw for my family room.
WONDERFUL ... Finished product is beautifully done. This method is easy, simple and requires no sewing. Great for children as well as adults and the elderly. Any one can do it. Love how you use the painter's tape to make a straight line and use as a guide to where you cut to on each of the "fringe" strips and the "very small" cut to make a hole to fold the "fringe strip" back through and lock it in place. Regular painters' tape is easily removed when finished.
Found your videos 2 years ago when I first started sewing. You are still my 1st go to. Easy to follow but must admit I love seeing your family, especially your husband! Love the energy and love when they are in it. Can’t wait to start this new project. Thanks Sherrill, you are awesome!
I loved the way you explained everything and it's very easy ,so another for me to do especially for a baby. Yay!!!!!! no sewing. Thank you again Cheryl. Ginny D.
Aquila Clark no,I think if you make the slits longer,they will be loose and tend to come out easier..you want the slit smaller to hold the fabric in..HTH...
I, have the same problem with my left hand, nerve damage.. But because we, love working with fabric we battle through. Thank you for showing us this new method of making this beautiful little quilt. 🏆
Oh my gosh I love u so much! I’m 15 and I had a brain tumor that weakened my whole right side, so I only have the function of my left hand... I love doing crafts and making stuff even tho it’s hard, but this video really inspired me❤️
Hi Serenajr. Hang in there - you can do this. Do your physical therapy every day - try to do as much for yourself as you can - don't let people baby you. Recently, I released a video on one handed crochet. It is great therapy for your hands. If you haven't watched it, here is the link. Keep the faith and happy sewing and crafting. th-cam.com/video/P9qK27NXPv4/w-d-xo.html
I just found your channel this morning! And I am so very amazed at this technique! You have done a very good job at explaining this. Thank you so very much!
Thank you so much for making this video! :) I made one for my partner and the border looks so professional and great! Turned out SO MUCH BETTER than the tying methods I've been seeing. He even thought it was store made and bought before I let them know that I made it for them
great speaking voice and very easy to follow love it!
Very detailed, calmly explained and not condescending for beginners. Absolutely love it. Thank you.
You’re welcome 😀❤️
THANK YOU FOR BEING brief, exact, thorough and precise. Youre the best Cheryl.
Hi Sabrina. Glad the tutorial was helpful. Thanks for watching💗 and happy sewing😍
Thank you so much for this video. Due to arthritis In my wrists I can do very little with my right hand, I have to wear a brace to reduce the pain. I can actually do this with the brace on my wrist.

So does this hold together, like in the washing machine?
I can’t sew and I’ve seen other fleece blankets and this looks so much neater than the knot blankets. Your directions were simple. I can’t wait to try it!
I don't like the knot. Tieiing. The kids don't want the lumps as they call them.
I am in a wheelchair and my hands don't work full but after watching other ways to tie with my daughter, ur way is soo much easier and faster! We finished her project in a matter of minutes and she enjoyed it much more!! She can't wait to make more now!
This is exactly what I have needed. I have arthritis in both hands, my back and in my spine and this will allow me to do a fleece quilt that I need towards the end of March of 2023. Now the fun part, selecting two fleece fabrics.

Sherrill I always come to you when I need a project solution or refresher...You are awesome. And you two are sunshine on a rainy day.
Thank you so much. Cramped fingers, tweezers trying to pull the knots thru - I thought there must be a better way. And this is it!!
Hi Maureen. Make sure you don't cut the holes too big. Thanks for watching💗and happy sewing😍

Thank you I've been trying to figure out what I can do fory grand daughters for Christmas. They're going to love making their own quilts.
Hi Cheryl. Glad you liked the fleece blanket. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. Merry Christmas😍
Made them this way years ago,they tend to come apart easier than knotted,but look so much neater and lay flatter without the bumpy knots..TFS
I never made one of these--Do you think if I make my slits longer--this will keep the blanket from coming apart--I'm just wondering--thanks?
Aquila Clark no,I think if you make the slits longer,they will be loose and tend to come out easier..you want the slit smaller to hold the fabric in..HTH...
Bless your heart. Super video. Anyone who doesn't sew can do this. My sis needs a baby blanket for a new baby. Now I don't have to make it.
Just used your technique and it's great!!!!! I have 3 blankets to make and this simplifies the work involved!!!!
Hi Marie. So glad the fleece blanket tutorial was helpful to you. Merry Christmas, and happy sewing. 😍
