I had this flannel sitting in my stash for quite a few years...decided to make a rag quilt.....I also went through my scraps last week need to dwindle them down a bit..and pulled out the minky scraps.....as expensive as that stuff is I wanted to use it......I put together a patch work quilt...couldn't get anything to line up......then decided to try another with borders around the minky..it isn't perfect...but it feels nice..I backed it with flannel.
