I need some craft assistance

I have a question for you crafty ladies.  I am making my son's Halloween costume this year.  I ordered fabric, but when it got here, and I touched it, I realized that I mixed my "f" fabrics up and ordered fleece rather than felt.  He is going to be an owl.  I will glue the fabric in strips cut to look like feathers onto sweats.  I saw a picture someone did last year, and it was adorable, but I'm pretty sure she used felt.  Should I exchange the fleece for felt or will fleece lay properly?

Re: I need some craft assistance

  • I think it would lay perfectly but it just might make a fleecy, linty mess!

    I can't wait to see a picture; it sounds really cute!

  • Thank you.  I'm hoping it turns out like I have it pictured in my head.  It's really cute in there!  haha 
  • I use fleece instead of felt frequently. It's softer, cheaper, and usually holds up better (comparing low-end stuff, here). Should turn out just fine.
