Your quilt has a clean crisp graphic quality without the border. The floral fabric looks almost embroidered, beautiful, but it seems like it belongs on a fancier quilt.

Flannels are so comfortable, but they also wear out sooner. There will be wonderful colors of flannel that will look great with it. The quilt top is wonderful and happy.
As an old seamstress, I have to take the time to warn you to prewash the flannel is you use it. Some people even wash it twice. It shrinks a lot
