I say if the brand of sheet you use gets little balls on it don't use it. I use main stay from Walmart and have used them for years and never had balling up so use the same ones for quilt backs.

I have also used pre washed flannel as a thin batting in a quilted jacket.

I use flannel on the back of baby quilts but had not thought of using on a regular quilt. Makes sense though. I would especially want to use flannel for kids; they love the soft feel of the flannel. Thanks for sharing.
