I, too, like a heavy quilt. I guess from that time we got iced in with no electricity for 3 days, learned a lot!! LOL But layering as many quilts as possible, we survived, now I prefer a heavier quilt. I made one for a cousin, flannel front and back with wool batting, too heavy for the whole bed, his wife said, but he uses it over his legs in addition to their regular bedding. He has trouble with his circulation and he says he stays warm. 9 patch and snowball.
