I saved the scraps with this project in mind.
First I cut strips about 5 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide. Then I sewed them all together.
I pressed all the seams.
Brandon (the patient one) cut out the matting from poster board.
If I had done this part it would not have been straight.
Then I cut the fabric to the length of the matting and cut a 45 degree angle for each corner. (This was totally guesstimated I'm surprised it turned out as well as it did)
I glued the fabric to the matting with Elmer's glue.
And Ta Da! A colorful fleece matting.
Here is the picture I put in the frame. Sorry I don't have a pic of the two together. (click it to see a larger image)

Sorry I didn't get you are picture of the finnished product.
