Need Idea's for a Warm Quilt.

Gee, my regular quilts were nice and warm when I lived in Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. I think flannel sounds really great, but fleece would be really hot. I'd stick with the flannel and regular batting. If the quilt it too hot, it won't be used. You can add to a quilt, but you can't substract!

Do a bit of homework for which its the best wool batting as some are not machine washable, the quilting distance can vary, and shrinkage can vary quite a bit.

Or you might make a pieced duvet cover for a down comforter. Or how about a really puffy polyester batting and then tie it. That will be cuddly and warm too. Happy Quilting.
