For those that have done this before ... what has been your experience??
Stick with the tried and true?
Or go with my alternate thought?
We put the cotton top down, face up and the put the batting and then the fleece, top side down, spraying between each layer. We try not to stretch the fleece, we trim after sewing but before doing the binding. We just did ours on the floor. I'm making fleece quillows now, but using the pillowcase method for them. I'm laying these out on my bed so that I don't have to be down on my hands and knees so much.
