Minkee
#21
I backed MY throw with it, it is a pain and I didn't go to a lot of trouble since it was just for me but I almost feel like a baby when I crawl under it! The woman( I hope) who invented it needs a BIG gold star!

I know this is an older post, but Ebay has decent prices on minkee..A few of the stores you can get it for about 7.99/yd..It is hard to work with though..I used it to make a backing for a baby blanket (top is flannel)..It's just such a yummy fabric!

I used Minkee for backing on a couple of baby quilts. Its soft and snuggly but, man, it was a pain to quilt. It kept slipping and sliding in the machine. Much as I liked the feel of it, I wouldn't use it again.

I used some small pieces of Minkee in a baby quilt that I hand quilted. I found it much harder to quilt through then other material, but the feel of it is great.
