Okay so recently at a yard sale I got some really soft fleece for a great price. They are large pieces, so I was thinking of using a piece of one as batting for my Funky Chicken Quilt, but then I was thinking it might be kind of fun to use it as the backing without batting in between. i was planning on doing a rustic hand quilt, with bigger, but not too big, stitching with large pearl cotton thread. I am thinking that might look kind of neat on the fleece and it wouldn't make the quilt too heavy. I was thinking I would bind in the normal fashion. I want brutally honest opinions, especially if you have tried using fleece in this way.

Here is a pic of my quilt top before it was sewed if you are interested!
