Thanks for the nice comments.
The fleece I bought is different from either of the ones @Eric the Shed has shown I think.
@Calimero is probably right, I got it from an Ebay link from a Picture of Bloor Heath in 6mm on Peter Pig site, from user usagitsuki(is he the same guy as Osmoses?) That Martin Goddard posted on TMP.
I have linked to the exact fleece, and the paint I used on my blog. But I suppose there's lots of fleeces and lots of paint that will do something similar. The fleece had different length 'grass' on each side I went with the longer one. Its better than Teddy bear fur because you don't have to cut it shorter, or harm any teddy bears.
