    The backing is fleece from the Real Deals dollar store, and is the easiest and best fleece I have ever sewn with. I will definitely be buying more of that at $1.00 a linear foot. It's 64" wide and comes in several colors too.

    the quilt.. Orange You Clever

    LOL, it took me quite a while, and I did complain a lot. Heeheee... but the UFO of the month thread is what motivated me to get it done. That plus my DGS said, "hurry nana, it's cold in my room!". LOL
