I found some big pieces of this very heavy material, that almost feels and looks like flannel on one side, the other is just woven plaid. I was thinking this is way too heavy for quilting and was tempted to throw it away. Instead I cut it into large pieces, put them together randomly. I was going to leave it, but decided to just tack some beautiful, blue flannel on the back. I had enough to make two big quilts that are great for keeping you warm in front of the TV, or reading. I had to serge around each piece because the material tended to unravel, then I top stitched at each seam. Lot of sewing and lots of thread, but these quilts will keep Vere and Andrew very cozy for years.
