I received two quilts from my mother-in-law that she hand quilted with double knit on both sides. Don't use them very often because they're so heavy but in power outage (electric heat) they are wonderful. I did take one top and add wide borders to cover my king size bed and used a sheet as backing. It's not nearly so hot. I have a lap quilt that someone made my step dad back in the 70s that I use in the winter. Can't beat double knit for warmth.
