Fleece Gloves...

 This week's scrap busting is aimed at those fleece scraps.  If you like sewing fleece, I have no do that there are scraps available. You will need between 1/4 yard and 1/2 yard total of fabric. Gloves are a little more challenging to make than some of the other scrap busting projects but very rewarding.   

The link to the tutorial is here.  Hope you are inspired to use up those left bits and pieces of fleece.

Happy Stitching!
