I need sewing tips, etc. for cutting and sewing a baby blanket using just the minky type fabric for the front (lt blue) and back (white). I wasn't planning on any batting as I wanted it to be rather floppy and drapy. Would this be OK?

If I just sew around the edges with right sides together and then turn it rightside out, top stitch around the edges about 1/2 inch or so, would it turn out OK do you think? Or do you have any other suggestions? And do you think a little quilting to hold top and bottom in place would be necessary or would it be ok without doing any quilting stitches?

Lots of questions but know there are lots of good answers out there too. Thanks a bunch.
