flannel does add texture and interest. i use flannel, wool, velvet & suede feel fabrics in my quilts at times. it adds to the comfy "feel" of the quilt imho.

If you'd like to add the flannel in, that's ok with me. :) It'll add some texture and interest.
If you don't want to, and would prefer to just use cotton, works for me too. :D
