Thank you ... I just shared my experience and I know others have more ideas too.
If you have any more questions, please be sure to ask!

I'll echo your sentiments about learning from others here on the Quilting Board.
I also know my quilting knowledge and ability grew in leaps and bounds from my participation here and am so thankful for those who share.

I've used spray and fleece backing several times. I spray the batting though and pat onto the fleece, that way I don't distort the fleece. Works great for me. I've done the same with Minky and no problems. Only negative I've from the recipients is that the quilts with batting and fleece are very warm, too warm for some people.

I have often used 505 adhesive spray....the only one I've found to work for me....

QuiltE.....that "cow" quilt is so darn cute!!!! Bet the recipient loved it, huh?!

QuiltE

Oh yes ... it is much loved!

I had the teal cow fabric for sometime and could never figure out what to do with it, to still show off the print. That Christmas I needed a QUICK gift, and suddenly came up with the master plan! The white outline cows were just begging to be part of it. Of course, had to use a Churn Dash Block.

Size wise, I just "cow-culated" how large the Churn Dash could be, according to the fabric that I had. Then the added width was according to the width of the fleece.

The jumbo block was fun to do ... and made a quilt pretty darned fast!
