Fleece is such a fun fabric for projects because it doesn't really fray. You can cut it, use it, and there you have it. Last winter, I lined a scarf that I had knitted for Selah with fleece that she picked out and made her a matching beenie. We have been using the leftovers little by little. Ken doll, who had lost his clothes, got a pair of board shorts for surfing that are now permanantly on his body. :-) #1 and #2 wanted to make little baby blankets from some of the fleece, so I cut out two squares and cut fringe around them (while they are pinned together) and the girls tied together the pieces of fringe which holds together the blanket; this method making fleece blankets is quite popular and super easy. It's a fun idea for baby showers, Christmas gifts, or just a warm blanket for your child's bed. We had a very little bit of this fleece left and #5, Little D, has 2 matching monkeys and they now have the remaining fleece as winter outfits; #4 and #5 are getting a kick out of it.
