Speaking of sandwiching....I have a flannel pieced top. Iwant to use flannel in the middle and the back. My fabris is not wide enough so I know I will have to put two pieces together for the middle and the back. My concern is 2 seams sandwiched?Will that be a problem?

For the piece in the middle for the batting, I would zigzag the edges together, thus avoiding the bulk of a seam.
I do the same with regular cotton batting if I have to join pieces together to get the right size. No seam = no bulk.
And for the back piece, sew the seams with a slightly smaller stitch length and press the seam(s) open. That should reduce the bulk, and the result will a nice flat, no bumps quilt.
Good luck!
