I love this thread. Sometimes thrifty is the right thing to do.
I am going to be quilting my bed throw this next week.
The pattern is Cathedral Windows. This did not need to be done for warmth, so I used a flannel sheet for batting, Then purchased a King sheet for the backing. My throw is 108 inches so I had to undo the hemmed edge to get my length. I got the right color AND the sheet irons up so nice!!! I will be doing this again.
