No luck finding any. All I can find in the thick mirco fleece material. So I was wondering if on the side where I am using the denim blocks could I use the micro fleece with the denim and on the other side use the other material flannel and cotton??? Does anyone have any ideas/tips that will help me??? thank you so much. I have learned so much from reading all the different ideas on here...
If I just had to have Yankees fabric, I'd use the fleece for that back and not the front. Fleece is knitted and will never rag out like the denim, but wouldn't be so conspicuous if on the back adn the "rag" was the inside of 4 layers.
