I have a large stash of home decorating fabrics. I lived close to a textile mill and they had a huge sale at their outlet store when the mill closed, so I bought lots of wonderful heavy weight cottons for really cheap (many for $1.69/yard; some for even less). I've made slipcovers and pillows and curtains and still have lots of fabric. Mostly stripes, I think.

Have any of you made a quilt using this weight fabric? I was thinking maybe something with really large squares (fewer seams) as a heavy winter bed cover. And tying it instead of quilting, maybe? What do you think? What experience have you had trying to quilt with this fabric?
