When I told a friend that I had flannel shrink after washing the fabric a few times, she told me that I needed to dry it with some towels, to give it something to bounce around with as it would help with the shrinkage. Seemed odd to me, though I have not had any problems since.
As for all the fuzz off the flannel ... that is almost endless, if you have a good quality!
