I haven't used flannel for the backing --- yet. From what I know about flannel, you may want to wash it a couple of times in warm water and dry it in the dryer. More than likely if you give it to someone they will do that.

I am so glad that you asked this - I was wondering the same today for a couple of kid's quilts I just pieced. Saw some really cute flannels at Hobby Lobby. I usually don't pre-wash but thought if I didn't with the flannel that the shrinkage could be more than I like. Good to hear these "endorsements."
