DH and I just spent the weekend with friends in Wisconsin and went to Walmart in Baraboo, where I found some fleece remnants, one of which made up nicely into a small blanket for a friend's little boy. I purchased an equal amount of coordinating fleece for backing, sewed and flipped right sides out, then quilted on the lines. If the piece were a bit bigger, I'd keep it for myself, but I won't get greedy! ( The Baraboo Walmart has some nice selections of fabric.)
