How to Make a Bed Throw

Here are the steps on how to make a bed throw:

1. Gather your materials. You will need:

* Fabric (1 yard for a small throw, 2 yards for a medium throw, 3 yards for a large throw)

* Thread

* Scissors

* Sewing machine

* Pins

* Measuring tape

* Rotary cutter (optional)

* Cutting mat (optional)

2. Prepare your fabric. If your fabric is new, you will need to pre-wash and dry it. This will help to remove any shrinkage or wrinkles.

3. Cut your fabric. The size of your fabric will depend on the size of your bed. For a small throw, you will need to cut a piece of fabric that is 54 inches wide by 72 inches long. For a medium throw, you will need to cut a piece of fabric that is 72 inches wide by 90 inches long. For a large throw, you will need to cut a piece of fabric that is 90 inches wide by 108 inches long.

4. Sew the side seams. With right sides together, sew the two long edges of the fabric together using a 1/2-inch seam allowance. Press the seams open.

5. Sew the top and bottom hems. Fold the top and bottom edges of the fabric down 1 inch and press. Fold them down again 1 inch and press. Stitch the hems in place.

6. Add any desired embellishments. You can add any desired embellishments to your bed throw, such as appliques, embroidery, or quilting.

7. Enjoy your new bed throw!

Here are some tips for making a bed throw:

* Use a fabric that is soft and durable.

* Choose a fabric that coordinates with your bedroom décor.

* If you are using a lightweight fabric, you may want to add a layer of batting or batting before you sew the hems. This will help to give the bed throw more weight and body.

* Be creative! You can make a bed throw in any size, shape, or color you want.
