why is it stiff?
some fabrics remain stiff forever- nature of the beast-
regular quilting cottons should soften with every wash- they just get better and better-
if it is a painted fabric or has some sort of coating on it- prehaps try vinegar in the wash- try liquid fabric softener-as apposed to dryer sheets- which are good for static cling- but not so much for softening-
