Your Experience with unwashed flannel
The local Fabric Pantry (fabric for charity) received a very large bag of flannel cuttings from a factory making men's flannel shirts. They are factory cuttings and all sizes. I plan on making crazy quilt type blocks from them mixed with squares that we will be able to cut from the larger pieces or bolt flannel.
We can't prewash the scraps. What has been your experience making quilts if the flannel will not be prewshed and shrunk especially if the blocks are made from stips and pieces as in string quilts. Will it help to spritz and steam the pieces before sewing.
