There are debates over prewashng and not prewashing your fabrics. I always prewash. I want it to preshrink and I also want any excess dye to wash out. That said I know many who don't prewash. So it really is up to the quilter.

About flannel... I have used it many times in quilts (I live in Mississippi) and I only prewash it once. Barb C
