Hello :)
So I went out a bought 4 meters of fleece and 2 large towels yesterday. I have a c and c cage that I made that it 3 feet and 4 inches long by 2 feet and 4 inches wide. Its not really a c and c cage I guess as it isnt fully fenced in and its two inhabitants are litter trained and love to run and play in their room(guinea pig and dwarf bunny).

So Hudson and Pheobe really like to kick the litter out of the cage. I vaccum everynight!(or sweep as its hardwood) lol so that is why I bought the fleece and towels. They are going to have a litter box in the cage so that I can keep them using the litter box but they wont be able to track nearly as much litter out of the cage if they are having to walk across the fleece before they leave the cage.

SO i am capable of sewing things and love doing so(im 19 so that might be a bit strange lol). My plan is to make my own fleece flippers( I have left over coroplast) but I want some help on how I should attatch the fleece to the coroplast? Should I make like a pillow case design for the coroplast to go inside? or is there another way to attatch it?

People in fabric land asked me what I was going to make with the fleece and when I told them they probably though in their heads "she's strange" lol


Also all your cuddly toy ideas for fleece would be greatly appreciated as I want to make some beds and stuff for them :)

Thanks in advance for your ideas :)
