    I used to pre wash my quilts and receiving blankets before gifting. But as times went by I realized that the new mommy was going to wash everything she got for the baby anyway. So I will not wash but I include a “ Color catcher” with it if the colors are bright or vibrant. Most all mommies are very grateful for this

    • @tracywilliams5779
      @tracywilliams5779 Před 17 dny +2

      I will also give a new mommie a bottle of Dreft or whatever brand of baby laundry detergent you like. Everything helps out a new family.

  • @DD-ek8qc

    Back when I was working I used to make receiving blankets this size for new moms. I prewashed because true flannel will shrink. As a disclaimer be sure to read the label on the bolt and make sure it is flannel and not acrylic and not meant for use with babies. When I made receiving blankets this size I did a rolled hem on my serger. I'm old enough to remember when receiving blankets were actually about that size. Moms and babies loved those blankets. You did a fantastic job explaining how to do a mitered corner.

    Back in the day my gramma was a beautiful sewer, and having her first great grandson, she made me several of these 1 yard receiving blankets. Because my son was born the size of a small horse, I could actually swaddle him in them, store bought ones were a joke. Love them and I now always gift them for new moms. I have kept them for when he has his own kids. KY son was 8 lbs 11ozs, 23.5 inches long with head n chest of 14 inches.

    I ALWAYS serge the flannel and then wash it before sewing. No raveling & I actually find it keeps the shape better to square up. I also make mine double sided receiving blankets.

  • @misscharlotte5075
    @misscharlotte5075 Před 9 dny +1

    I like to make reverable blankets. I use a pretty cotton fabric for one side and flannel for the other. Makes a nice gift. Saves messing with mitered corners. ,,yes ,i am a lazy girl

    @dianaduncan4800 Před 18 dny +1

    I made about a dozen receiving blankets for my daughter when she was expecting our granddaughter, because I remember how versatile they were when I had my babies. You can use them as blankets, swaddles, burp cloths, towels, pads for diaper changes…so many things! Then when baby has completely outgrown them (about age 3-4) they make great dolly blankets or even dust rags. My daughter loves hers so much, she said she’s giving every new mom in her circle receiving blankets. Grandbaby #1 is almost 3, and my daughter is now expecting baby #2, and all the blankets I made are still in terrific shape, despite countless washings. I might make a few new ones, though, using your method. That corner miter is genius! ❤

    I’ve a question about washing fabric. You said you always wash red and green. What do you do with fat quarters and jelly rolls? Will washing with the color savers after construction protect the rest of the colors? I’ve sewed all my life and never pre-washed until I had three blouses shrink after 1st washing. I would sure appreciate your expertise
    and advice. Thank you. Joyce Gross

    • @TheSewingChannel

    Hi Tracy, Let me begin by saying I LOVE your videos. I have learned so much! I have to say my overall was the video with you cooking. I was in the sewing room chuckling to myself. My hubby had to see what was going on. He watched it with me. We were both laughing and enjoying it. Thank you for the giggles. May I ask which flannel you use? For the receiving blankets, I was looking at the nursery flannel. With the sale and I have a 25% off coupon, it makes the flannel $2.62 a yard. I have never used this type of flannel. I have to do something to help my bottom line. If you could give me some advice I would be grateful.Thank you!
