Leota......this is the same daughter I tried to talk into another pattern because this one was so beyond me LOL.....do you really think she's going to cave on the fleece :) When we discussed backing, she thought flannel was fleece and when she saw the fabric it was "but that isn't what I meant Mom!" Seriously.....this top is completed and I just want to hand it over to someone else to finish up......I've had enough of it! LOL
