Have you ever tried this?

Good idea Twinkie! I usually use leftover scraps from quilt projects because I basically stay with Warm N Natural which is low loft but I bet the fleece would work well too. I gotta try it - making 4 hexangonal tabletoppers for family memebers for Greek Easter......

I learned something new here today and that is my daily goal. Just an FYI to tell the difference between wool and poly felt, take a small snip from the piece and put in an ashtray. Take a lighter to it, if it melts it's synthetic and if it burns - it's wool. Happy Quilting.

The felt you are using is most likely poly and not cotton and it also melts with intense heat ... like a hot pan or an iron.
For coasters, it does not soak up condensation like warm and natural. However, your cotton top would help with that.
I use it a lot for the backing on Christmas ornaments, certain wall hangings, especially once-a-year Christmas items, drawer lining, bottoms of boxes, lamps, hunting racks and so much more.
Good luck!
