    Advise needed before Coonecting Corners kit with all flannel strips

    Generally I would wash flannel first but in this case the kit is all strips and smaller pieces. I understand CT kits are generous but still am nervous about uneven shrunken strips and trying to fit them? Should I wait and wash after its all finished or rinse -soak now. Its the Yo-Row Quilt
    I hate it when I cannot change a misspelled header !!

    ​Since the top is all flannel, I would wait until it is all sewn together.

    I also agree with Tartan. Don't wash it.
