no sew fleece
When I was planning my wedding I had no idea what to expect from my maid of honor. She is my best friend but she is also a little eccentric. She planned my bridal shower perfectly and she even took time to make be a very special gift. She made a no sew fleece blanket for us and it is one of my favorite presents from the event.
Ironically, I didn’t put any kinds of throws or blankets on my gift registry. Even though my husband and I were tying the knot, we really didn’t have plans to move into a new home and we definitely didn’t know how we were going to decorate. My maid of honor’s no sew fleece blanket became a sort-of foundation for our future decoration scheme.
My dear friend took the time to make the no sew fleece blanket in between planning and cooking and trying on gown after gown. She did all of this without one complaint and she also completed the project without giving a single clue as to what she was doing for us. The no sew fleece blanket was not only a thoughtful gift it also represented her dedication to our friendship.
I guess this is why I cried when I opened the box that the fleece was in during the bridal shower. My friend insisted that the no sew fleece was really simple to make. Anyone can do it. It really didn’t take a long time. She kept reminding me how simple the whole process is but that didn’t matter to me. I was just touched deeply by the gesture.
The whole thing was kind-of embarrassing for me after I thought about it. The no sew fleece blanket took her about an hour or two to complete and she said that she really wanted to do a more complicated piece. The only problem is that she doesn’t sew at all.
You really never truly understand what a present like this means until you receive one yourself. Every time we use the no sew fleece blanket we think of the maid of honor in our wedding. I will always cherish the gift no matter how easy it was for her to make.
If you want to create a very special present for someone that you love you might want to consider making a no sew fleece blanket. Take it from me it is one of the nicest gifts that you can give.
