It ended up being too small 
I will take it apart and do it with bigger pieces of fleece and stuff
Anyway, I thought I might aswell let others know how I do it, incase they are having a bit of trouble
[*]This one is made without sides[/*]
Right, this is probably the easiest, doing it without sides. Getting the measurements right seems a bit tricky (it will come out smaller then you measured out)
So, get 2 pieces of fleece for your top and bottom. In mine you can see I have a plain piece and a printed piece. You want the 'top' fleece (printed) to go on the bottom of the pile. Then you want the 'bottom' fleece (the plain one) to go on top of that. Then you want to put your wadding/absorbent layer on top. Or you can leave it out if you want just fleece.
Pin it all together, try not to stretch it out to fit or anything, just have it nice and flat. Then get sewing. Make sure to try and do this on a nice big table or something. I had to do it in a small corner of my room on the floor and my back is killing me!
[*]Be sure to leave a small un-sewn gap on one side of the fleece. This will be so you can turn it inside out later[/*]
Right, everything sewn together you will see that you have a gap with all three pieces of fleece and gaps inbetween
You want to put your arms inbetween the plain fleece and the patterned fleece. Not the plain fleece and the wadding. Now pull everything through the hole as if you are turning it inside out.
You will then have a liner that has fleece on both sides and liner/wadding in the middle! If you decide to leave the liner out then it is exactly the same step by step
Sew up the hole and you are done!
My fleece liner came out small because I cut the fleece the same size as my correx base. I would say add on an inch or two to make sure you sew as close to the edge as you can.
Hope this helped!
