I had someone request a NY yankee quiilt for their new baby.
In the Oklahoma panhandle it's kinda hard to find any NY Yankee fabric.
On a recent trip to tulsa I found NY Yankee fleece so I bought some. I had never seen a quilt made of fleece let alone make one but I think it turned out pretty good.I decided to make the label look like a baseball with a signature on it.
I used a low loft batting and used flannel for the back. It really isn't too heavy but I bet it will be warm.
Thanks for looking!

You did a wonderful job! Wish I had thought to do one like that when my son's girls were born. He is a die hard NY Yankee fan! Oh forgot to mention I think that baseball label is just adorable.

My Significant other has been asking me over and over to make him an "Anaheim(sp?) Angels" quilt for awhile... But I have not been able to find COTTON fabric. I have never sewn with fleece?? What was it like to sew with? and Quilt ? One more question... Can anyone tell me the difference B/T Fleece and Flannel? Thanks all. Wonderful Yankees Quilt !!

A person can definitely tell the differnce between fleece and flannel. Fleece is a little harder to work with. Luckily this fleece had pinstripes.
I had to count stripes in 3 different areas on both sides in able to get it straight. Then I stitched in the ditch sorta by stitching along the stripes (about every 5th one). without the stripes I don't know if I could have gotten it straight.

Very nice! as you can tell from my avatar I am planning on making my DH a Cardinal quilt this winter to throw over him as he watches sports!
