We made potholders for years with flannel inside and they worked just fine. I see no reason why your fleece would not work just as well. I know the insulbrite is the "in" thing but I think it is pretty expensive. Most of my potholders are a couple of layers of warm and natural batting and we use them quite successfully for any of our hot pots/pans, etc. When I use the insulbrite, I pair it with a layer of regular batting, rather than using 2 layers of insulbrite. Guess there are as many ways to make potholders as there are folks making them. Have fun making yours.
