I happened to have just completed two quilts with flannel backing and I used cotton for the binding. I considered using flannel but one thing I didn't want to deal with since I was short of time was potential stretching of the flannel.

I make a lot of preemie quilts with cotton tops and flannel backing. I often will make a reversible binding so that there is cotton binding on the front and a matching flannel binding on the back.
Sometimes I use straight cotton binding or straight flannel binding. Either one works.
