Default Question about making a baby quilt from baby clothes.

I am currently working on a baby quilt for my great niece's baby using her baby clothes. I have three rows complteted and it seems to be working up pretty good considering all the stretchy fabric. My question to all who have made quilts using baby clothes...does the quilt seem to be extemely heavy for a quilt? Or is it just me? I can't imagine a little toddler trying to drag this thing around. And, if I put batting in, it's going to be that much heavier, I would think. Do you use batting and how do you quilt stretchy fabric? I'm worried that I will stretch it out of shape.
