    Default Blizzard Fleece

    I am making some fleece mats (and doing a little quilting on them) for an animal shelter. Should I use Blizzard fleece or would Anti-Pill be better? Not sure what the difference is. Is one more sturdy? I know the mats will be washed a lot.

    Thanks so much.

    Either would work great. After a while these love blankets and quilts get loved to death so to speak. What a great charity to help.

    I would go with the least expensive because the dogs won’t care if it pills.

    You bet'cha. I would also check resale shops/Goodwill for large scraps. Also JoAnn's from time to time has good sales on fleece. One of my LQS about once a quarter sells fleece very cheaply and becasue it is so wide you could get many pet mats out of a single cut of fleece.
