Question Pilling Flannel on rag quilt?! Any Advice?

Hello!!
I am new to this forum and I have a question if anyone is able to help!! I made this rag quilt and used flannel which frayed up nicely..but pilled after the first wash. Is there a better fabric to use that will still give the nice "rag" ruffle effect but would hold up better than flannel..or is it that I didn't use a good enough quality flannel? I did since use a pumice stone on the fabric and it worked pretty well but will it just pill again after rewashing?? I am about to start a baby crib comforter and I don't want the same thing to happen on that one!
I would appreciate any advice you may have!!
Thanks!
Jeanette
