Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Has anyone made a quilt from College fleece fabric? If so, how did you do it?
My son is graduating from UCLA and I want to make him a throw size quilt using the UCLA fleece fabric. I have scoured the net and found numerous tutorials on how to make a no-sew fleece throw. These are fun throws but I want to make a very special quilt since he's getting a graduate degree in TV Production.
Any ideas would be very welcome.
Thanks a bunch,
Sande
Sande, does it have to be fleece?

I have the UCLA Fleece fabric. I bought it last year with hopes of incorporating it into a quilt for Ben.
How about using the fleece for the back of the quilt and doing a pattern with UCLA colors for the front?

I like your idea, Cari. This opens up all kinds of possibilities!Originally Posted by Cari-in-Oly

Hope one of these works for you!! I almost attended UCLA !!
A Good Friend, like an old quilt, is both a Treasure and a Comfort
Thanks for the video links for no sew blankets. I'll watch them but I was hoping to stay away from that look. That's great that you almost attended UCLA!

I made several Bears t-shirt quilts backed with Bears fleece. maybe see if you can find or stealout of his closet to use on the front.

I have tons of t-shirts that I've saved over the years and I think this is the time to break them out. I'll use the UCLA fleece on one side and t-shirts on the other. I assume I won't need to add a batting because this combination will be thick. Thanks for your input. Sande

If you crochet, then crochet-lined fleece blankets look really nice and are a step up from just fleece, assuming you don't have a quilt idea instead.
