In another thread, a poster recommended washing and drying the quilt at a commercial laundramat first. All that tiny string lint is rough on the w/d.

I like the idea of taking the quilt to a laundry mat ( are they still called that?) for that first wash and dry.

That is really sweet! I love the feel of flannel but don't like to work with it ....I sneeze and my nose runs constantly . I recently made two flannel quilts for my ggs's. I haven't quilted them yet. I am hoping I won't have a problem with that part of it!!

Good job on your quilt! :thumbup:

I am wanting to try a rag quilt; looking at yours gives me inspiration.

That is really cute. The only way you could not have lint is if you cut all of the blockson the bias. That would probably be worse than the shedding. Good job!
