I thought the cotton would have more 'body' than flannel for the embroidered appliques.
Any comments regarding whether this would be a good idea or not, combining the cotton with the flannel??
Thank you all for your advice, it's much appreciated :-D
I mixed cotton & flannel in this quilt I did 5 yrs ago! The red is flannel. I hand quilted around all the animal squares on this panel.
