Believe it or not, sometimes us quilters buy material that eventually way down the road we use. If not for our kids then our grandkids!

Yes that's true. I had fabric stored for one of my son's quilts and never got to it. So now i am making a quilt for his little son with that fabric.

I find a good quality fleece that washes up nice.
They are light weight and warm :)

I love your avartar, did you take the pic? B&W photos are the best

I have used flannel on the back of baby quilts, it is nice because they stay on. And they are so soft. We gave them from our church to the Pregnancy Centers in our area.
