Someone recommended that you look for cheap flannel shirts, etc to get material for a rag quilt. I wouldn't if I were you. I mixed flannel from WalMart and flannel from a quilt store for a rag quilt that I wanted to give to a cousin. When it was washed you could tell which was cheap and which was the better fabric. Needless to say, I never gave it as a gift. It went into one of those donation boxes at a church. A very expensive donation.
