I did a chenille blanket back in September for a lady who's baby died at birth; it was the blanket she was covered with in the casket. I remember doing a test sew-out on polyester fleece using the fleece setting in the Amaya OS. Since that turned out great, I took the chance on the baby blanket; it turned out beautifully. They are just about the same thickness. I have LOTS of fabric of all weights, my own fabric store, you could say, so maybe you could make a trip to your local JoAnn's or Hancocks and pick up different types of fabrics for testing.

I tried to purchase chenille fabric for attempting some sew outs but could not fine any. Before I damage an actual product, what suggestions do you all have? Terri Embroidery Creations
