Fleece Material

Hi
I am new to posting on this website, so apologies if I have posted this on the wrong forum.
I am looking to buy some plain blue fleece material to make some blankets for my son's bed since the cold nights are here again.
I have had a look on ebay and some other websites but some of the prices are quite dear. Will probably need about a metre and a half to make a generous blanket. If I remember right, think I saw some plain fleece material at our local Dunhelm Mills but can't remember how much they charged.
Does anyone know of anywhere else that sells the material relatively cheaply!
Cheers

Not sure where you live, but try your local market if there is a fabric stall. I got lots from both Leeds and Huddersfield markets and it was much cheaper than e-bay at the time.0

Cheers for all the replys.
We live in Aberdeenshire, so have limited shops to get this from (ie nearest Ikea is Glasgow (3 hours drive away))
We do have a Dunhelm Mills and a large Asda in Aberdeen so will pay a visit next time I am in that way.
