I just completed a lap quilt for my husband using flannel as backing (no batting). We live in Phoenix and don't need a quilt with heavy batting. He loves the quilt. I made it a little oversized so if he does need extra warmth, he simply folds the quilt in half. Otherwise, it's fine the way it is.

Cotton describes the fiber content. Flannel describes the weave and finish. It can be 100% cotton or a poly blend, or wool or other fibers.
And yes, cotton flannel can be used any where your other cotton fabrics are used.
