Notes
Note: I used pinking shears to cut the fleece and add a decorative edge at the same time. This is optional. The nice thing about working with fleece is that it doesn't fray, so you don't need to worry about hemming or finishing the edges of the fabric.
Note: Adding essential oil is totally optional, but rice does have a light musty odor when heated.
