The green and the light blue were my favorites too. There were 7 children involved so we had to have a different color for each one. Also these two were the softest fleece. Even though made by the same company the different colors can feel different because of the dye I suppose.

Adorable work and great purpose. I cleaned quite a bit on my snow day but also sewing some feel great!

So, how did the day turn out? Did you get done what you wanted to? No fun in housework...have to give yourself a legitimate snow day!!

I like the fleece idea. :-P

I love them all. Just a hint for next time; no insults intended, but you don't have to turn the hem as fleece won't fray. You can just do a fancy stitch or zig zag in a little from the edge. I do mine on the serger, but if you don't have a serger, you can just do a stitch to fancy up the edge. It saves some angst and time. I do the curved corners too, so much easier than trying to make a crisp corner.

Gran I appreciate your advise-thank-you for sharing.

Ms Georgia Peach {Purrrr} you did really good for your snow day, very very nice work...I am purging & straightening all my stash-gosh it feels great.
