I used fleece as a batting/backing on several quilts I made as Christmas gifts -- they were carpenter's wheels, 50 inches square -- I quilted them on my machine outlining the diamonds, squares, and stars -- I trimmed the backing and folded it forward to form the binding after quilting -- on one of the quilts I made, I pieced the backing -- they were so cozy and soft -- it was easier than sandwiching a quilt for quilting -- my only concern is the durability or rather the softness of the fleece after multiple washings -- maybe they won't be washed so much-- I enjoyed working on them!!
