Remember that not all flannels are created equal. When you prewash you'll have lint, but you should not have "pills". I've had good luck with Super Flannel at Walmart, but I've found it only in solids. Others may have some recommendations of how to find nice flannel.
I have never put flannel with batiks - it just doesn't feel right to me. Has anyone? I'm making a batik quilt for a lady who has one I made with flannel backing for her son. This one is for a daughter and she likes that flannel on the back. I haven't even seen any flannel that looks like it SHOULD go with this top. Any thoughts?
