backing question
I am making a scrap log cabin from the bin! Years of dresses, scraps, fat quarters will finally be one of my dream quilts. So excited!
My question is: can I use the leftover bits of flanelette from years of home made pyjamas to piece a backing? I don't have any where near enough "quilting" flannel to do it. Thoughts? Cheers! Aileen |
Scrappy front, scrappy back....why not? :) Go for it!

Why not! A flannel pieced back will be cozy and you can create a reversible quilt if you get creative.
|
Go for it! Personal preference rules. I love pieced backs, but a friend of mine can't stand them. To each her own!
|
sounds cozy and interesting. be sure to post a pic when you finish :thumbup:
|
I love the idea. Go for it. Please post pictures when you are done. I woul love to see it.
|
If you like they way the flannels look together ... by all means .. just do it.
|
Go for it , its your quilt an you can make it the way you want. Have fun joyce j
|
The only important thing I would consider is, will the flannels wash and shrink the same way as fabrics used on the front?
It would really be cozy. |
Have at it!!! I agree with the others scrappy is as scrappy does!!!!
