There’s nothing more comforting than a soft, snuggly blanket—especially for babies and toddlers. Minky plush fabric is a dream to touch, making it the perfect choice for a cozy baby quilt they’ll want to cuddle with all day long.
In this easy tutorial, I’ll show you how to use a self-binding technique where the Minky backing wraps around to the front, creating a beautiful 2 ½" border. You can use any quilt top design you like—this method works great, whether a simple whole cloth or a pieced pattern.
Don’t be intimidated by the idea of working with plush fabric or mitered corners. I’ve figured out a simple, beginner-friendly way to create neat, professional-looking mitered corners while showcasing that soft, plush border on the front.
