Here's a way to make your quilts look soft, cuddly and 'crinkly'. Wash you fabrics and hang to dry. Do not use softener and if you have to iron it, no starch or sizener. Use unwashed baby diaper flannel as the batting. When you wash the quilt after it's done being quilted, the heavier the quilting the better, was the quilt. The flannel will shrink and make the top looked really old and crinkled up. Good luck.
