Default Washing and drying flannel fabric for quilting

I read the recent thread regarding washing/drying flannel and because I have several pieces of flannel to wash, I wanted to try and minimize raveling and distortion.

I folded my yardage in half and took my quilting clips and clipped around the raw edges and then washed and dried the pieces. It worked very well. The red and striped fabric are from a LQS and the small pieces are from Wal Mart. All worked the same with this method. So happy that I read that thread and prepared my fabrics first before laundering them.
