When I make fleece blankets, I sew a scallop stitch around the edges and then cut the outside with my rotaty cutter with a scallop blade in. This makes for a nice finish and is much easier than doing binding or doing ties around the edge. It also looks very nice with the scallop.

I've done traditional binding and also have folded the fleece over for self binding following this tutorial. She used batting too which I don't so skip the part about having to trim the batting! It was kind of awkward the 1st time I did it because the fleece is a bit stretchy but when I was finished I loved the look of it and will do it again.
