When binding with fleece, i use my decorative edge rotary cutter, cut the strips at 1.5"... stitch all strips together at a 45 deg angle. Now fold in the middle, cheating just a smidge further for the bottom side. Fold over the raw edge of the quilt sandwich and stitch thru all layers at once. I like to straight stitch right at the base of the fancy part of the cut on the top side. Since the bottom side is a bit wider, the stitches hit well, but i do make an effort to keep them line up well. It does not ravel, holds the shaped edge beautiful, wears like iron and is my fave for babies and small children as they CANNOT wear it out...
