Thanks for all the wonderful ideas, everyone! I love the idea of doing a cathedral quilt, which I hadn't thought of but seems perfect. Denim is a great idea, but I've had my heart set on using flannel. So, I think I'll try cathedral pattern quilt in Maywood Studios flannel with wool batting. Thanks again for all your suggestions!
To AZ Jane--I love the quilt!

Warm & Plush 100% cotton batting. Cotton is almost always the heaviest batting and Warm & Plush is the thickest, heaviest of the cotton batts. It is sometimes a bit difficult to locate in local stores, but I've seen it sometimes at JAF and I buy mine by the roll from Walmart.com. I love heavy blankets & W&P is my absolute favorite!
My second choice would be a blanket from the Army/Navy Surplus... but then you're usually limited to darker fabrics -- at least for the blankets that they sell in the local Army/Navy stores by me.
