Best time to buy flannels at Jo-Ann's is Black Friday (day after Thankgvn). For several years flannel has been a 6am-noon doorbuster at best price of the year. Charity I sew for buys year's supply then.

You need to wash it first,cause all of it will shrink. This is double napped ,which means it is fluffy? on both sides. It makes very soft baby blankets, gowns,booties and etc. Sorry, no it is not much different from cotton to sew with because it is cotton.
