Thank you, Artsyone, Tessagin and popover. The fleece is no longer soft. I may just shave it anyway and then cover it. I plan to make hearts out of like fabric and sew them along the purple border in different sizes and at different angles. I hesitate to take the fleece off as I would have to rip out all of the quilting. Like the idea of minky but am wondering about the statement about the dryer. What happens to it in the dryer? Will have to take some of the Minky leftovers I have and dry it to see what happens.
Thank you, popover, for the link to the shavers. So appreciate your help.
