I have tried spraying it with 505 and without. My tension is okay. I have used both a walking foot and a plain one.
I think the only time you can successfully use fleece on the back of cotton is if you tie it with yarn or floss. If you really wanted to quilt it, then flannel would be the better choice. You could add an extra layer of flannel for warmth if you thought you needed it.
