Need a nice soft material for your craft projects? Fleece fabric is ideal for both large and small projects. Invented back in 1979, fleece is a thick, soft and insulating type of fabric. Fleece is pronounced "fliis", which is English for sheep's wool. The name was given to the fabric because fleece has many properties similar to wool: good insulating properties and a high air content.
Fleece is a tough material that is easy to work with
Whether you're a beginner or an expert, fleece fabric is both easy and soft to sew with. For the beginner, it's an advantage that the fabric doesn't fray when you cut into it. This makes the fabric easy to control in the sewing machine or with needle and thread by hand. That's why this fabric is also ideal for your child's first sewing project, because it's easy to handle. Another positive feature of fleece is that it is hard-wearing and robust, so it can also be used for sewing projects such as skiwear that need to be able to be worn outdoors.
Fleece has many uses
You can use our fleece fabric for many different projects. Typically, the fabric will have a soft outer side and an even softer inner side. That's why fleece also feels nice and fluffy and soft against the skin.
Because of its insulating and soft quality, fleece is perfect for lining jackets, sweaters, hats and other outerwear. However, you can also easily use our fleece fabric for the outside of clothing, as the quality we sell is called anti-pilling and does not cause lint. It gives your homemade cosy clothes or blanket extra longevity.
Make lovely teddy bears and other characters in fleece
Because fleece fabric is soft and pleasant to the touch, it's an obvious choice for sewing teddy bears, dolls and figurines. If you need to challenge a child creatively, you could make imaginative teddy bears together. Because fleece is so easy to work with, great things could come out of an afternoon of fleece and creativity.
A pack of assorted colours is always good to have in the stash for those creative projects. That way, you don't have to go out and invest in each colour when you need them. You can buy cheap fleece fabric for your creative sewing projects here in our online shop.
Fleece is perfect for the little ones
Fleece is perfect for all those soft baby things like baby carriers, baby blankets and pram accessories if you want to sew for that little new life yourself. Because of its sweat-wicking properties, the fabric is great for sewing projects that baby will sleep in or on. Cotton fleece is particularly suitable for babies and children's delicate skin as it is made from a natural material.
A fluffy fleece blanket is also easy to make and nice to have afterwards. All you need to do is cut your desired size blanket and finish the edges if necessary. In fact, because the fabric doesn't fray, you don't need to finish the edges of fabrics.
