What a neat blanket! And a great idea for putting 2 pieces together -- i'll have to try that!

i love polar fleece blankies -- especially brand-new-still-fluffy ones! I've made a bunch when the Fabricland up here has its 'buy one meter-get 3 free' sale, so you can get a ton for really cheap. Mine usually end up as one ply thickness with just blanketstitching around the sides.

I've made a couple of faux-suede quilts that have had polar fleece as the backings tho -- just gotta keep the cats away from them! Darn polar fleece is such a hair collector!

Did you know that Polar fleece is made of PET (plastic)? I guess thats why when its 'wet' its only really damp, and takes so little time to dry.
