One of my first finished quilts was for an ex-fiance and I think he probably long ago tossed the quilt! (It was over twelve years ago.) It was a king-sized Looney Tunes flannel quilt and I thought - the fluffier the batting, the better- so I made the quilt into a GIANT pillowcase and stuffed two layers of high-loft batting into it. Then, I poorly FMQed the borders first and tied the rest of the quilt. It actually looked pretty good, but the ties started coming undone after awhile. I shudder to think what happened if he washed it!
