Default Blind friend

I have a friend who is blind and I'm thinking on making a quilt for him. Since I'm recently interested in recycling fabrics, I'm thinking on utilizing corduroy slacks that the elastic waistband has deteriorated. This way he can "feel" the fabric and design to know the quilt is his. Any suggestions as to direction of nap, other fabrics to add, etc? It should be simple, I think, and I plan to tie it, perhaps use fleece or flannel on the back?
