I used a matress pad for my mums lap quilt but it had the material on both sides, I have seen the ones with a paper like cloth on both sides, that had been washed a few times and it had pilled quite badly. so I am not sure I would use it for something that will need washing a lot. it was quite thin so would have been ok for a wall hanging.
on the other hand if you quilt thru it or do quilt as you go it would probably stabilize it
