Thanks, Amma! I would've tried flannel, gotten frustrated and the whole project would have gone in the trash

I live in Minnesota. After this weekend, I may put two battings in my quilts!! I have made cotton top with cotton backing and batting, I have done cotton tops with batting and flannel backs(very cozy), I have done all flannel top and back with batting. Use two of them last night (minus 20 below outside). Great thing about flannel is that if you get up during the night, it stays warm for a while so when you get back into bed your bed it still warm!!! I have never made a quilt without a batting, but I can see where that might be nice for a summer quilt. It all works.

There is a neat flannel quilt kit in Keepsale Quilts catalog I would like to make for DH. It looks nine patch with orange and brown flannel. May have to break down and get the kit as I really like the colors. Check it out it is all flannel (top).

When I make a quilt with flannel, I don't do a third layer in the middle. Having flannel on the front and flannel on the back with nothing in the middle makes the blanket more like a receiving blanket - nice and cuddly.
