I too tried to FMQ with fleece as the backing. It 'scootches' way too much! I wish I had seen this thread before I tried it. Oh, well, live and learn. I tried to FMQ the quilt I made for my great niece to be, but after frog stitching all the tucks, I just covered the mess with prequilted Tricot. The blanket has the top, the batting, the fleece, and the batting attached to the Tricot. I hand tied it. Made a nice thick warm blanket for a baby who will live on the Northern Pacific coast. My niece was thrilled by it. Yet another desperation fix. :thumbup:
