Lots of great info! Thanks! Different method than I’ve seen before, not only the double layer, but also the use of fleece. I really have never used fleece in my sewing or even a purchased garment, so i know very little about it, but isn’t it a kind of fluffy polyester? I may be thinking of the wrong fabric. If it is the polyester fabric, I’m having a hard time imagining that blocks will stick to it, the way they do to batting. Or do you pin to it? I’ve also seen people make these boards with cotton flannel and have always wondered if the “stickability” of flannel is anywhere near batting, and now wonder about the “stickability” of the fleece. Would loved to have seen a demonstration in use.

Yes, fleece is a kind of fluffy polyester. It works so well because the fleece is slightly "sticky" and blocks will adhere without any pins!

thank you. very informative. I have a question - couldn't you just use one layer either batting or fleece? why did you use both?

The batting adds cushion. The batting would also tear up over time with so much use. The fleece adheres really well and is easier to clean threads off than batting. Using fleece also adds a nice clean finish ☺️
