    Fleece forest: how many yards?

    How many yards do you use?
    I was trying to see how many inches I'd be using and convert that to yards. Each "line" would be 10 inches long. I counted 720" and that converts to 20yards o.O

    Assuming your source of fleece is exactly the width of one line, then yes, your math works out. Cutting one 20-yard strip of fleece into 10-inch strips will yield 72 strips, each 10 inches in length.

    oh my yes - there's no way you will need 20 YARDS!!! i just always us whatever scraps i have left over for the fleece forests. or a buy a yard or so of matching fleece and make several accessories out if it, including a fleece forest.
