Best place to buy roll of fleece for backing
I like using fleece for backing. Has anyone found a good source for large quantities of fleece? I'd like to get a roll similar to batting. Thanks.

I don't know about the best place, but I Googled "fleece on a roll" and found some websites that way:
https://www.fleece-fabric.com/
http://fleece4sale.com/
http://fleeceforsale.net/cart/index....index&cPath=65
https://www.picotextiles.com/?gclid=...SAAEgKOA_D_BwE
This one is wholesale so maybe does not sell retail:
https://fabricdirect.com/acatalog/fl...id-prints.html
Edit: How many yards are you thinking of? Just looked around a bit on those websites, and fleece seems to run about 60 yards for a roll. The bigger issue may be shipping costs. Depending on what you are thinking of, you may want to consider buying by the bolt instead. I suppose the yardage for a bolt depends on the thickness of the fleece, but not sure. JoAnn's does sell by the bolt.

As Prism99 pointed out - try pico textiles. I like picotextiles. I have never bought a roll, but I would go to them to check it out
marshall dry goods wholesale has fleece. I have bought from them before and if they have what you like they would be worth talking to as well. They are wholesale but as long as you have a business name to ship to they were ok with shipping to me

Marshalla dry goods (MDG) also has a retail web site. http://www.marshalldrygoods.com/prod...y/2-99-a-yard/
from there, you can look at all the other categories of retail fabric for sail on MDG.

Thanks for the info. I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for! I buy my batting by the roll and I find it convenient so I thought maybe I could do the same with fleece. I'll keep exploring the links above.
