Minky Dot fabric SEWERS out there??? Help!?
I am taking a new yard of 60" wide Minky Dot fabric and making Granddaughter four extra 'blankies' to drag around.
I do not plan to put a backing on them, just want to sew around the edges. Simple and lightweight.
1- Should I wash the fabric first before I cut and sew?
2- Can I just turn the fabric under once or double on the edges? I plan to use my walking pressure foot thingy, forget the proper name, and maybe a wider zig zag.
Has anyone sewn this fabric, it is new to me.
Any suggestions truly appreciated. Thanks!
Thanks!!! especially for the link...it had some pages I couldn't find earlier!
I found just the answer about turning the edge over once, and the back is considered finished .
Will at least do one and then see if I should add a back.
Still debating on whether to rinse the fabric out first.
And see if anyone else has any ideas 
This fabric does not fray, and does not require being turned under. You can just blanket stitch the edges, or turn under once if you want. You can find a lot of information at the link I have provided.
Make sure You Are using the "real" minkee. Minkee is made by benartex. the stuff at joanns and walmart is not like benartex minkee at all. it IS soft, but not like minkee.
Edit: I always wash fabric first. You never know what got on it in the factory or in shipping.
