using fleece as backing with batting-TROUBLE PLEASE HELP!!!
I am having No luck what-so-ever getting the knot to pop through the fleece with out it pulling completely through or the thread breaking. Ready to rip my hair out! I can't even get started! Oh, and used spray basting.

A very interesting problem -- I have used fleece as a backing for the first time this year, but have machine quilted my quilts and have back-stitched to secure my stitching and used pins to keep the layers together, no batting-- -- I think that handquilting would be difficult because of the thickness of the layers-- good luck--I would probably go through the quilt top and secure my knot in the batting

I had exactly the same problem once trying to pull my yarn through for knotting my quilt. I think it is caused by the spray basting. I really don't have a solution for you; just wanted to let you know I feel your pain. I am also, practically a neighbor. I am from Camden and live in Oxford now. Maybe we have met.
