I did the same. i doubled up my thread and did and invisable stitch. This stopped having a lump in the middle because you sew them butted up rather than over lapped if that makes sense. Did that 4 years ago and its still going strong x
This is what I was thinking - to avoid the lump in the middle. With velcro I thought I could stitch a piece of fabric underneath on the joining edge of one of the blankets so that the other piece could be laid on top to butt up against it, with velcro sewn on the bit where it overlaps.
When you say you doubled up your thread and did an invisible stitch, what do you mean? I've never done one before! I'm guessing you did it by hand rather than on the machine?
