Default Quilting with Coating-Weight Italian Flannel

Hello, All,

I moved last summer and took the opportunity to donate a lot of old blankets. Now, with winter coming on, I'm blanket-less! I have two yards of a beautiful, bright red plaid flannel that I'd like to use. I know I could just run a blanket stitch around the edges and call it a day, but I'd like something more substantial.

My idea is to double up the fabric and quilt the two layers simply with no batting. What do you all think? I've always resisted not having a full sandwich, but, in this case, I'm not sure if there's a real benefit. Is there? Do I need something? If so, why?

Thanks,
Aso
