As a former police officer and basic EMT (and quilter :) ) we are taught that the issue of a quilt WITH other items can be harmful. For example, a quilt over a baby near the edge of a crib where the matress doesn't fit tightly in the crib and there is a "gap." If you have someone with a history of a SIDS baby, I would make a quilt with a card that says something like, "A soft blanket for your dear one to play upon." I would stay away from flannel or heavy batting. I use poly batting on all kids quilt so they can take the washings. You can always make a summer quilt: top and back, no batting, sewed around the edge most of the way and turned right side out and then quilted and hole closed. Good luck.
