It's not flannel sheeting--it's "Warm & Natural Cotton Batting". It does look like a sheet though. I was a little. . . not disapointed, but suprised by it--it wasn't what I thought. I had something thicker in my mind--but I don't have experience with quilting, so I wasn'r really sure what to expect. My walmart didn't have batting, and our JoAnn's closed a couple years ago, so I had to buy online. . . .
