Because I like a purse with some body/stiffness to it, I often will use a very stiff Pellon or CraftFuse. I like these products in my purses, a lot. I have made some with fleece, and they are OK, but I like the stiffer purses better. So, if your Pellon is one of the stiffer ones, I'd give it a try.
Good luck :)
