I would love to make my oldest son a quilt made of flannel with warm and natural for batting and a flannel backing. My question is do long arm quilters quilt flannel on their LAQ machines?

I don't know about all of them, but I have seen some here on the board :D:D:D

I am sure some do, I will tell you this quilt is going to be very heavy. I don't mind the heaviness, but some people do.

I have made lots of flannel quilts, I live in Michigan and we have cold, cold winters and we like heavy, but I have always tied them and would really like one quilted.

My bedrooms are not heated, so I made mine with flannel on both sides also. I used two battings and longarm quilted it, so it was a big job.

Two battings, OMGosh that sounds like my kind of quilt. Two of my kids like heavy heavy quilts too so I think I will go ahead and make it and hope that someone will quilt it for me. Thanks for the information.

I think with one layer of batting, it shouldn't be any problem.

quilting flannel is not a problem for a long-armer.
