What's the easiest way to finish? Hem, zig zag? I don't feel like putting a lot of time into this.

Are you doing two layers of fleece ? Of so just cut and tie knots :lol: With those even kids can help you :thumbup:

I hemed mine. Done in just 15 minutes or so.

I have used a decorative stitch on the edges of one layer. It turned out good. Play around with your stitiches until you find one that you like or just zig zag it.

1 layer. Cutting & knotting would be a pain. I made cute pillows that way w students. They have precut kits at Oriental Trading Co. Good for a kids event.

Good idea!

A scalloped rotary cutter works well. Nothing else is needed.

Oooo! I scalloped rotary cutter?! Didn't know they existed. I have scalloping sheers. Thanks!

Would that be used for a single layer or would you sew a seam allowance for a double layer with the scalloped edges?
