Make your own cozy linen throw blanket

Hello there!

I am SUPER excited about (well a bunch of things but focusing on) 3 things today!

First, it is 47 degrees this morning in our area of WA State.

Second, it is officially the first week of Fall now, not that we waited but it just feels really Fall-ey now.

Third, I have been thrifting a ton recently and am so excited to show you how I turned a soft linen tablecloth into a cozy throw blanket.

I am putting the finishing touches on our neutral Halloween decor as well, I cannot wait to share that soon. See, SO MUCH to be excited about 🙂

I knew this tablecloth would be too small for our long farmhouse dining table but a beautiful linen tablecloth with no stains and oh so soft has to come home with me.

It’s a rule right?

Do I have a bunch of other fabric that I could have used? Yes.

But LINEN is different. I love it’s natural wrinkles, and how incredibly soft it is.

We are such a throw blanket family. All year round but especially in Fall and Winter.

I was initially going to line this with a nice flannel but I had recently picked up a 50″ x 60″ super soft throw at Ross and knew it would make a great liner.

Linen is not lightweight, and after adding the soft sage green throw on the back as the liner, this throw blanket almost feels like a weighted blanket.

Here is how I made this super easy DIY Linen Throw Blanket.

I measured the tablecloth and saw that by trimming about three inches all around the edges this would make it the same size as the lining blanket. This also gave me plenty of pre-hemmed ruffles for the ends.

Once the pieces were cut and the same size, I created the ruffle by folding the part I trimmed off every few inches and making this super simple little pin tuck along each end of the linen front.

I pinned this ruffle to the front of the blanket and sewed it onto each end. Once that was done, I ran a seam down one end and both sides of the blanket with the outside of each piece facing each other.

I turned it right side out and carefully folding the green edge under, stitched the remaining open end together.

And just like that this super soft, and very cozy blanket was done!

The most time consuming part of the project was taking some pictures as today was a super dark, rainy day here in the Northwest.

Perfect weather for a fluffy, soft new throw and a good book however!

The wind is picking up outside and we look to be having the first storm of the season. I’m tucking my sewing machine away for now and deciding if I want to start dinner early or curl up and test this blanket out.

I bet you can guess what I am going to do 🙂

Until next time my friend! Stay cozy and make some time for you today, appreciate you so!

xo, Tanya

  1. Hi Tanya! What a wonderful transformation from tablecloth to cozy throw blanket! Linen really does have such a unique softness and those natural wrinkles give it such character. Love how you added the liner with the sage green throw—such a smart and comforting touch. I bet this makes for the perfect cozy corner on chilly fall days. Great job, and I can’t wait to see more of your fall decor!

  2. This is such a cool DIY project! I love how you turned a thrifted linen tablecloth into a cozy throw. The idea of using the soft sage green throw as a liner is genius. I’m a big fan of linen too, its natural wrinkles add so much character. Do you think you’ll try making more throws with different fabrics? And how do you plan to style this one in your farmhouse? Can’t wait to see your Halloween decor!

  3. This DIY linen throw blanket project sounds amazing! I love how you turned a thrifted tablecloth into something so cozy. The idea of using a soft sage green throw as a liner is genius.

  4. For safe deposits via the Stake app, it’s best to use official methods like cards, e-wallets, or cryptocurrencies. Using stake app download ensures transactions are encrypted and secure. For players in Pakistan, local payment options are also supported, making deposits convenient and safe. Beginners should start with small amounts to familiarize themselves with the process. Always double-check details before confirming transactions, and monitor account activity to ensure security. This approach allows you to enjoy mobile gaming confidently without risking unnecessary exposure.

  5. A simple question helped me when I started: can the platform process withdrawals without issues? That’s usually the first sign to check. I eventually tried bc game casino through the bc game apk because it operates under a Curaçao eGaming license and includes sports like India cricket, football and kabaddi, along with Live Casino and more than 8,000 games including slots and crash titles. I always suggest testing one small withdrawal before playing seriously. I checked my first payout early in the morning around 6:30 while drinking chai on my balcony in Delhi.

  6. Just had a brilliant, wind-down session after a long week. I logged into MadSlots Casino and honestly, it was just what I needed. The selection of themed slots is massive—I got totally lost in an ancient Egypt one for ages. It’s just a fun, easy place to play without any hassle. The interface is super simple to use, and finding all the latest promotions was a piece of cake. Definitely my new happy place.

  7. WhatsApp Plus Dorado APK destaca como una versión elegante y llena de funciones dentro de WhatsApp Plus, especialmente apreciada por su atractiva interfaz en tonos dorados que le da un aspecto premium. Además de su diseño llamativo, ofrece amplias opciones de personalización, un rendimiento fluido y un mayor control sobre la privacidad, haciendo que la experiencia de mensajería sea más personal y flexible. Muchos usuarios valoran la combinación de estética y funcionalidades, como el control de temas, el envío mejorado de archivos multimedia y opciones avanzadas de chat. Plataformas como WAPLUSZONE suelen destacar WhatsApp Plus Dorado como una excelente opción para quienes buscan una experiencia más dinámica y visualmente única en comparación con la versión oficial.
