I use this fabric to make pjs for my kids. It does not have flame retardant on it that is the ONLY reason that it has that on the selvage. Because if one grandma made pjs for her grandkids and the house burnt down and a child died in the fire and they had grammies pjs on the parents could sue the fabric manufactors for not specifing that it was not flame retardant. It is just a "black box warning" to cover their butts! On top of that more than half of "fire related deaths" are not burns, they are deaths do to smoke inhalation, which flame redardent clothing is not going to prevent unless the clothing it oufitted with its own oxygen tank and self contained respirator mask
It is pointless to use anything that is flame retardent if the family uses fabric softener in the washer or the drier. This removes the chemicals from the clothing thus rendering it useless!
