Otherwise maybe just a stay-stich seam around the outside edge if you're going to do a binding. I, too, think a binding would be far easier than a 'birthing' or 'pillowcase' method.
I like the idea of flannel, but am worried it might make it "too" warm. My son lives outside of Dayton and I guess I need to find out just how cold it gets. Being from Texas, it's hard to judge.
