wow! Thats fab and very creative! Thats a good idea but as usual left everything to the last minute! Need to get something for the weekend but will definately think of doing this in the future.
First post this year, can't believe no camping as yet but weather has been bleurghhh.
If you have a Costco card they have great fleeces, cost less than a tenner and are much thicker than the normal ones. I'm off on a hunt at the moment - if I see soething elsewhere I'll come back and post.

Dunelm Mill had some large thick fleece blankets for £11.99 but reduced to £7.99 if you have a store near you? I got some lovely chocolate brown ones for camping
I got some at Aldi and they are very good and large. They are described as fleece blankets. Also Home and Bargain and BJ's also stock them from time to time. measure your's and think how much larger you want them, then check the measurements on the ones for sale.
will be watching this thread closely as we could do with a couple of thick fleecy blankets for our new camping chairs...love the look of the royal blue ones at Dunelm Mill as colour-wise they'd be perfect, but they're out of stock...boo...!!...i'm willing them to get more in stock in the next week or so, but i'm not going to hold my breath...
The Aldi ones are very thick and a really good size. I have tried the ones from cheap shops and there really is no comparison. I got 2 a couple of weeks back in a bright pink and bright yellow!! A bit bright but reduced to 2.99 each so I wasn't going to be too fussy lol.

ok so I went all around today looking and I found that Home bargains, BM, Buyology all have nice thick ones and if you go for a 'Throw' they are large. Roughly under £10.
However I did find cheap snuggle blankets (fleece blankets with arms) which I am going to stitch together for the children so they can kind of use them as fleece liners (cos my kids kept wriggling out their bags and like their arms free)! Bargain at 2.99!
Plus I got a 15 tog kingsize duvet for £12.99 to put on top the SIMS!
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
