I'm looking for unusual fleece to make a hat from. I can find plenty of
Malden Mills fleece on-line, and cheap stuff in the stores near me, but
any advice on where to buy other high quality fleece?

For example, look at what this sweatshirt is made of:

http://www.athleta.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=2789&itemT
ype=PRODUCT&iMainCat=5&iSubCat=216&iProductID=2789

or

Where does one buy unusual fleece?

check what's made by Glenoit and Hundtington Mills... not sure who sells it
by the yard.

I think Huntingdon Mills is out of business, but Glenoit's "popcorn
sherpa" is intriguing. I've written to them to see who sells it to the
public. Thanks!

Try a Google search for Ruth Ann Spiegelhoff...I think that's the right
spelling, but can't remember the name of the company. It has had some
really snazzy and great quality prints in the past, and they give good
service.

I would look it up but have to get offline as someone here is expecting
a phone call.

I commandeered the line again, to correct my previous post. It's
Ruthann Spiegelhoff, of Great Copy Patterns (I found my stuff from them
upstairs), but their online site doesn't seem to have fleece. So I was
mistaken in saying they do. Can't remember the other name. How many
ways can I spell embarrassed?
