No, it's not just you - I like using flannel, too!
Do you wash the flannel first? I don't wash any of my fabric and have never had a problem.
This is how my mother viewed washing fabric before using it:
"Clothing manufacturers don't wash fabric before they make clothes, nobody would buy it." I'm down with that.
