I was making an item recently and I couldn't believe how much the fabric shrunk in from side to side - just pressing it during construction (it was a 10" wide piece of fabric) . I hadn't bought that specific brand before. I just had never experienced watching fabric shrink so much right in front of my eyes - just because I misted it with Best Press (and no... I didn't soak 'er down. lol)

Good to hear on the flannels... I don't sew with those often enough to have known that. Thanks!

Edit to add... I meant to quote Jeanne on this one... thank, Jeanne.
