Default Picnic Quilts Question

I am thinking about making a picnic quilt for my daughters. I read one suggestion to use a flannel backed vinyl tablecloth as the backing to make it more waterproof against damp ground. This sounds like a good idea, but it seems to me that just the top and tablecloth would be pretty thin by themselves, so I would like to add batting, probably polyester to handle wear and tear. I was just wondering if any of you have used a vinyl tablecloth as a backing on a quilt? and if you used batting too? Did you like the result? thanks for any thoughts!
