Backing a quilt witih flannel
I am making a baby quilt for my newest great-grandson - have the top pieced and am pleased with it - my question is - can I use a piece of flannel for the back - sew the four sides leaving a spot open to turn - and then stitch in the ditch to attach it together and not put batting in the center? Would the quilt be too flimsy without batting and not wear well - my baby lives in the South so batting for warmth is not necessary. You gals are always so gracious in offering help and my thanks for your input.
Best regards, Joan
