Quilting on Fleece lined baby quilt
I did a search on this board, but cannot find the answer to my question. I am using fleece (first time) for backing of a baby quilt. Not having any problems, but did decide to use a stretch needle for quilting. However, I am not sure how close the quilting should be. I am using straight lines and diagonal lines in parts. Thank you ahead for your replies.

I used fleece backing on a wheelchair quilt, no batting, used my walking foot and a fancy stitch,. The fleece was white so I used a colored thread, stitched five inches apart( doing stitch in the ditch , forming boxes) Loved the look on the back side, and there was n o shifting. Fleece stretches, but not that much to cause a worry. Will be using it more often, so easy not to deal with batting!!

I used fleece on the quilt below. I used my walking foot to block the square then quilted the flower in the center. I had also used batting seeing this was a gift for my girlfriend while she was recieve chemo treatments to keep her warm.
