They make very good everyday use baby quilts also- easy wash and wear for a longggg time. Some babies are a bit more messy than others, so needs more washings; also it is very good for the charity quilts, or for nursing homes; but either use more knit for the backing or flannel- the elderly love warmth - not the cold feel of the cotton backings... plus by using the knits, they stretch together. I have so much knit and polys, and I plan to make quilts for charity until it is used up... but nt sure I'll live that long! believe me I have loads of it!
