Antron fleece is definately better but it still has the same stretch issues that polar fleece has.
One tip I learned is fleece always has more stretch one way than the other. So, test you fabric first and put the least amount of stretch where you are worried about wrinkles forming. That really helped me alot to avoid unsightly mistakes.
Since then I use both Antron and polar (due to cost eand easy access to a variety of colors locally).
Plus I haven't found any good sources for flourescent dies to react under black light. Since we do blacklight puppetry also there is alot more available in polar fleece.
If anyone knows of a good source for flourescent reactive dye please let me know???
On glues I can make some good suggestions! instead of hot glue try using contact cement where you have fabric attatching. Just make sure you put the contact cement on a scrap piece of foam or something then dob it onto the area to glue so you don't get any glue spots going through your fabric.
On Polyfoam or Scott foam I recommend using contact cement or even better 3M brand Super Weather strip adhesive found in most automotive stores. Use the YELLOW! 030001 is the item# I believe. It dries fast and gives a fantastic hold to foam!
Hope dat helps,
