Always a creative challenge when you have random pieces of fleece. I decided to use the wave blade on my rotary cutter on the scalloped edges rather than clipping them to give them a rag look. Even though fleece doesn't "rag" like flannel, I really like the look the clipping creates anyway. And I only used 1 layer of fleece because it gets pretty heavy when it's 2 layers.

I like that. The scalloped edge and wave cut gives it a more finished look. Great job!

Great idea! Just makes me want to snuggle on the sofa with it watching a movie.

Here's the directions for doing the quilt, I got this from another board member, and you can also print out the templates for making the scallops. The squares are 7".
