Fleece A few questions about making fleece bedding.

[Onlyinred]

1)I've read and seen in a few places that before I make the fleece bedding (2 sheets of fleece sewn together with a bed pad in between) ,I should first wash the fleece a few times. Can anyone confirm or deny this? (Here's one place that says to do so

2)As of right now I don't have odorless ,colorless detergent. Would vinegar be alright (because it's all natural) and if so, how much?

3)Has anyone ever used hemming web instead of sewing the two sheets together? How did it work out for you?

Interested in what you guys think. Thanks so much for the help ^^

Y can use a detergent with an odor just make sure it gets a double rinse. Trust your own nose.
And yes you can use a half cup of vinegar, quarter cup in a HE washer

Definitely wash before you make any blankets. Fleece isn't supposed to shrink, but some of it does.

Fleece does NOT have to be babied. It can be washed in hot water, strong detergent, and bleach. It's nearly indestructible.
