Fleece Fabric (Franklin Park)
I am looking for Fleece to make knotted blankets. The volunteers at the hospital where I work make blankets and give them away as "comfort blankets" to patients who are at end of life. It is part of the NODA (No One Dies Alone) program. Afterwards, a family member (if there is one) may take the blanket home with them. Someone just asked a question so I'm putting the answer here too: We use 2-yard pieces for adult size and 1-yard pieces for child-size.
