I'm making some extra large sized receiving blankets to give as gifts to my husband's niece who is expecting a baby in September. I've always hated the tiny little receiving blankets that they sell in the stores because my children outgrew them so quickly. So I made my boys some "quick and dirty" flannel blankets that I just serged to finish the edges. My 4 year old can still use these to cover up with (they're about 45" square). I'd like to make these gifts a little nicer. I am thinking of roll-heming the edge using my serger and some wooly nylon. However, I only have one cone of woolly nylon and was wondering if it would be okay to just use one looper with the woolly thread and the other with regular serger thread or do I really need to use 2 cones? What other finishes would look better?
thanks in advance.
