Ok, does anyone make flannel quilts? I don't mean now, now that warm weather is here, but other times.

The second quilt I ever made was flannel and I have made three more since then. But I don't see many pictures of finished flannel quilts on the forum, so just wondering is this something that most don't make.

I know in WI, they come in handy and I also like putting flannel backing on a cotton front. Helps prevent slipping off the bed and alittle more cozy.

I haven't made a flannel quilt yet, but have one cut out and ready to go at some point.

All the rag quilts I have made are flannel - but have never tried to back a quilt with flannel

i made a flannel jean tumbler quilt. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-97028-1.htm

I like to back baby quilts with flannel. Even in SC babies need to be cozy especially in A/C.

I have never made a rag quilt but have been collecting flannel for one. I have a drawer full of men's shirts, etc from the thrift store. Probably enough for two or three quilts!! I love 'stashing'.

Thanks to QB I know how to make one, now!!

:roll:

I make quilts for the Veterans. I almost always put flannel or fleece on the back. I've made a few that were flannel front and back. The elderly sure appreciate the extra warmth and coziness, summer or winter.

I've made 3 baby quilts in flanel with flanel batting and backing. I love using flanel for batting, it makes the quilt very "pliable".

I was curious if the whole quilt including back and front could be quilted. I cant seem to keep warm in the winter the older I get..lol

I've made several flannel quilts - I also use flannel in with some of my regular cottons. I really like working with flannel - it's not slippery at all.

I have made 2 twin size flannel quilts plus one flannel rag
quilt. Love them. I use my walking foot to piece them &
would recommend using 1/2 inch seams, rather than 1/4 inch.
Guess how I know this?
