How do you use Quilters Dream fusible batting?

Considering this, can you use fusible fleece for quilting?

The fusible fleece will not take as high a heat setting as your cotton fabric. I use fusible fleece for most of my art quilts/ wall hangings and it works great, no gummy neeedles, quilts very easily. The way I would do it is to fuse it to the backing fabric, then pin or spray baste the top on.

Likewise, do I have to use batting in a quilt? Typically, current quilters balk at the idea of not using some type of batting between their quilt top and backing, but making a beautiful summer quilt without batting is a perfectly sensible idea. Even very thin low-loft batting inside a quilt can still be slightly warm.

What is the difference between fusible interfacing and batting?

Fusible interfacing will give a little stiffness to collars and cuffs on shirts. Fusible fleece is often used as the batting when making vests, tablerunners, or placemats. The fusible fleece gives the item a little thickness helping any quilting texture to show nicely without the bulk of regular quilt batting.
