Thank you for your kind comments. I spray basted the fleece as it is quite stretchy. Doesn't move one inch and gives a nice light quilt. I don't do overkill on the quilting as the blocks are on foundation. I stitched on each side of the blue striping. Then I quilt a square where the 4 corners meet and something in the wider blue border. I did random 1/2 squares in the outerborder. You will love the fleece backing.
