Smile Using fleece as a backing for a quilt - no batting

I would like to use fleece as the back on a quilt but am worried about the stretch and the difference between the polyester fleece and the 100% cotton quilt top. I'll be quilting it on my Tiara - like the Handi-Quilter Sweet Sixteen it's a sit-down long arm. I'd like to glue baste it to the top with no batting. Anything I should be aware of? Will I have problems with it stretching or sliding all around while I'm trying to FMQ it? Nothing fancy - probably just a sort of stippling with some hearts or flowers or swirls all over. I'm sure there's someone on the board who has done this so I'm sure I'll get lots of expert advice!! Thanks in advance for any help!!
