Has anyone made a quilt with a polyester fleece backing?
The one I purchased for my quilt is a 1-sided fleece- think sweatshirt material (because of the knit on one side and fluff on the other, that's the closest thing I can think of), and obviously the softer side out for the backing.
I want to make a nice quilt (I know, duh ;) ) that will last for a long time for my niece, have a fleece back, now I'm concerned that it will: 1. pucker 2. not look beautiful and nice after 10-50 years 3. regret that I did a fleece instead of doing a nice cotton.
What I have now that I could use in place of the fleece is a nice ivory cotton that I've also used on the top of the quilt, so it would go beautifully-
Any thoughts?
