If you make a rag quilt with more than two layers of flannel - do you still put a layer of thin batting in between?

1109Since you live in Michigan you may consider the batting. It's not a must though. Be sure to share your project. Would love to see it.

I live in Michigan- maybe removable batting would be an idea! The weather changes every hour!!! Thanks!!
22354Yes you do. Just make sure you cut your batting 1" smaller than your flannel squares. This way it is easier to clip and you still get the same effect. Love to see your end results in projects. Good luck :)

42046I think that I would because it would not be warm if you did not.
