Frequently Asked Questions
Does cotton flannel shrink?
Yes, expect 3-5% shrinkage on the first wash. Always pre-wash before cutting to ensure accurate sizing in your finished project.
Is this flannel suitable for baby items?
Yes. This is 100% natural cotton with no chemical finishes — safe and gentle for baby blankets, swaddles, burp cloths, and crib sheets.
What's the difference between flannel and fleece?
Flannel is woven cotton that's brushed for softness — breathable and lightweight. Fleece is knitted polyester — warmer and thicker but less breathable. Flannel is better for sleepwear and quilting; fleece for outerwear and blankets.
Can I use this for quilting?
Yes. The 42" width is standard quilting width. This flannel works as backing, as a warm batting layer, or for solid-block quilt designs. Pre-wash to prevent uneven shrinkage in your finished quilt.
