I listed this as Reasonably Priced because I got the fleece on sale. However, it can get pricey. I love these double fleece blankets. They are really, really warm. This one I made for my brother. He likes spicy foods so I thought, "Chili Peppers!" and Lime-ish green is one of his favorite colors. NOTE: I am short. So 1.5 yards is a nice size for a large-ish throw/blanket. If you are looking for a bed covering I would say go with 2 yards, which is 6 feet.

Take your two pieces of fleece and put them right sides together. Or wrong sides outward.
Pin one side and sew it together.
Do this for two more sides.
On the last (forth) side, sew as you did the others but leave a 4 or 5 inch opening at the end.
Pull the blanket right ways out through the opening. Like you are making a GIGANTIC pillow.
Poke your finger through the hole and push the corners out so they aren't squished inside.
Sew up the opening.
Now, you can stop here or add some quilt stitching (diagonals and boxes). Now Stay Warm! =^_^=
