that is how I make mine. My daughter loves the ones I made for her with sheet blankets in them. She says they are "Just the right thickness" . I use reg new blankets, washed to pre-shrink, for ones that I do not plan to hand quilt too much on. I do a little hand quilting on them, it is harder tho. I used thin white blankets from the dollar general store on the ones I hand quilted a lot on. They are easier to get thru. I do not have to worry about the bunching up from batting when washed 100's of times, because I tell the receivers that the quilts are meant to be used!!! and loved!!!!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
