How do you do the corners with the double crochet edging at the end of the video?

@SweetSavor -When using the alternate foundation stitch of two double crochets in each hole, the corners can be made by making three double crochets in the corner stitch. Similar to using the single crochet foundation, 3 stitches in the corner hole should make the turn and allow the material to lay flat. An alternative would be to do 2 double crochets two chains and two more double crochets in the same corner hole.

Can you just stop at the first row and not do the second row? I like the look of a fatter blanket type stitch. Thanks.

Yes, the "foundation" stitch makes a very nice edging on it own. I enjoy the simplicity of it.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question! I don't crochet but believe I can do what you show in the video (thanks) - how would I secure the last stitch if I was just doing a foundational stitch (one row)? Not sure if that is easy to answer in this format but thought I would ask anyway. Thanks again!

It is an easy stitch.  Simply insert the crochet stitch in the first stitch (last stitch) and pull the loop through and tie off.

Can you use 2 layers of fleece for a crocheted edge? Will it hold together okay when it washed or will it bunch up?

We only use one layer for Project Linus. I am sorry, I do not know whether two layers will work.
