I would love to support my local quilt shop. Her material went up from $10.95 a yard to $17.00 and up a yard. I'm now retired and I mostly buy her material when on sale or drive to R.I. to purchase some material. I just drove to RECO a factory outlet in Mass and there material starts at $10.00 a yard. I just bought some flannel material at 50% off, $3.00 a yard at JoAnnes in Mass. Not bad.

Has anyone on the board worked with flannel for a quilt? I was told to pre-wash then spray starch then press before I use it because flannel shrinks. Need your comments, please.
