We've got some old fleece blankets which we use for camping and they're still in great condition (wash beautifully and are easy to dry) but they're singles and we now want a kingsize, and a different colour.

My question is: where can I find a good quality, thick fleece blanket of a similar quality to the old ones we have? They all seem to be really thin, whereas ours are thick. I've checked out places like Dunelm but am not impressed.

Costco had a lot of fleece type throws a few weeks ago. It might be worth checking them out if you have one near you.

Could you join the two old single ones together and use as backing for a larger thinner one of a different colour? Would that be big enough?

Try a local charity shop, they often have unused blankets. I buy them for the dog.

I use the Faux/ fake fur ones now. I did use fleece but found out the fake fur were much better,warmer. I switched to Teddy fleece quilt cover after years of ending up on the zip of a double sleeping bag.

The two I really like were purchased from Ikea years ago.

The thin ones are used by the dog as beddings.

Recently bought a fleece lined coverless duvet (only 6.5tog) so use a a throw at mo. It is very thick and it covers our king size bed. I intend to use it and a sheet in the summer...when it arrives!
