As I mentioned before, I didn't measure out the fleece.  I placed the heating pad on a corner of the fabric, flipped it over while keeping one side in contact with the fleece (to find out twice the length) and added several inches past that for flap.  Giving a little room on each side for sewing, I eye-balled what I needed and cut.

Fold over 1/2", pin and sew the side that will be the opening (the opposing side will be the flap) so that the wrong side of the fabric is facing itself.  Place the fabric wrong side down on your work surface, and place the heating pad on top of it, matching heating pad edge to sewn edge of fleece with even space on either side of the heating pad.  Fold the fleece over the heating pad and pin the two sides adjacent to the sewn edge.  Fold and pin the flap edges in 1/2" with the wrong side of the fleece facing itself.  Remove the heating pad and sew the pinned edges.  Turn the cover inside out, and it's done.

Repeat for each heating pad.

Put your heating pad in its cover and enjoy!
