    Fleeced backed quilts are one of my favorite ways to make what I call "quick quilts". I make most of my baby/children quilts that way. I use fairly dense fleece and do not put any batting it them. Works great.

    I often use a "connecting" stitch (074 on my Q6600 machine). It goes pretty quickly. I love it for stitching the fleece down on the front of the quilt--I nearly always bring the fleece from the back to the front to form the binding.
    I have a Janome 9000 and have been playing with another couple of stitches today on my next project being quilted :D

    I did wrap the fleece round to the front and used the same herringbone type stitch to finish it, all very quick and easy, no problems with the fleece, it had no stretch length ways, so quilted that way first to hold it all , lots of pins and not one pucker I am pleased to say phew!! :D

    :D There's a link to the pattern, I could have done less quilting, to emphasise the central squares, but couldn't be bothered stopping and starting :wink: :D

    Thanks Aberi, :D

    I have done several D9P which start off as a nine patch, this pattern starts off as a framed square, which is the subcut off centre then rearranged before sewing back together...errrmmm clear as mud??? Have a look at the link I posted on page 1 so you can see what I mean :lol: :D :D
