Absolutely. That's what I was going to say is that flannel can be stretchy and difficult for even an experienced quilter to work with. Working with 100% cotton is so much easier. That's not to say that some people don't have any problem with it, but lots of people do. Glad you started using shorter pieces, I totally agree that will help. Good luck finishing your quilt - and the baby is going to love it!
