Question about fleece
#1
Has anyone ever tried to piece together a quilt with fleece and flannel? What is the secret to matching seams without stretching the fleece? I am making a baby quilt but its not cooperating! I think I have taken the same seam out 10 times Thanks for any help! :-(

Orient the fleece so the stretch is all going in the same direction. That will help. Stay-stitch the stretchy direction and put the stretchy side against the feed dogs, using a longer stitch, about 3.0

in order to join fleece (or any knit/stretch fabric) to a cotton (non-knit) fabric you have to stablize the knit.
you can use sew-in stablizer or fusable- but stablizing is the step that will make or break the project.
