Explore A Huge Variety Of Fleece Fabrics For Every Project

Fleece comes in a range of different types, each with their own unique features and benefits. Here are some of the different kinds you can find in Spotlight's range:

  • Polar Fleece: Distinguished by its double sided file (i.e. fuzzy on both sides), polar fleece is a common choice for outdoor clothing and garment linings.
  • Minky Fleece & Coral Fleece: Minky fleece (sometimes also called minkee fleece) is a super soft fleece fabric variety which is made with extra fine microfibres. It's often the fleece of choice for babies and kids' products. Coral fleece has a slinkier texture and a longer pile, and is ideal for decorative cushions or cosy dressing gowns.
  • Soft Shell Fleece: Featuring a tightly knitted or woven face (outer) and a fluffy reverse, soft shell fleece is a popular choice for outdoor garments, windcheaters and baby accessories like bibs. You can also find sports active or performance fleece that's ideal for creating sportswear and activewear.
  • Teddy Fleece: Teddy fleece is distinguished by its superior cuddly texture that's reminiscent of your favourite cuddly toys. It's constructed with a looser knit than other fleece types to create a unique teddy-like texture.
  • Micro Fleece: Constructed with fine microfibres, microfleece and nursery fleece has a short and super fluffy pile that makes it exceptionally soft.

Fleece FAQs

What is fleece fabric?

Fleece is a fluffy and insulating fabric that features a softly napped and fuzzy surface texture. It's typically made from synthetic fibres - usually polyester or PET- that makes it durable, quick drying and easy to care for.


What can I use fleece fabric for?

Fleece is the perfect fabric to use if you're making winter garments like jackets, or soft furnishings like cushions, blankets or even pet beds. It's also a popular favourite for kids and baby projects like soft toys. You can find a huge range of free and inspiring fleece projects online at Spotlight to get your creativity going, including:


Is fleece warmer than wool?

Fleece is fuzzy, warm and soft - but when it comes to insulating power, natural wool fibres will provide a greater level of warmth. That's not to say fleece is without its benefits! Fleece fabric is much easier to launder than wool and is typically much more affordable in price.


Does fleece need to be hemmed?

One of the major advantages of fleece fabrics is that the material does not fray, making it ideal for projects like our polar fleece no-sew throw blanket. Wherever possible, it is still recommended to finish the edges on your fleece fabric projects - unfinished edges of fleece can start to curl up. Use a sewing machine zigzag stitch or an overlocker - or if you don't have these options, a pair of pinking shears will also do the trick.
