    Have you thought about using fleece for the backing &/or batting? It is still fairly lightweight, but really nice and warm and snuggly. I've made several with just the pieced or panel front and the fleece backing (no batting). You can also go with less dense quilting on the fleece, whether tied or hand or machine quilted.
