I made a 5 layer slashed flannel quilt. When I washed it I got tons of lint all over the back(unslashed) of the quilt. My sister said I should have alternated the flannel layers at 90 degrees. Any tips? This is the first time I have tried thisl. I've gone thru 2 lint rollers trying to clean it up. The quilt looks like it's made of old flannel now.

Are you talking about a rag quilt where you sew 1 inch away from seams and then cut and the flannel ravells ?I made rag quilts and used two layers of flannel with cotton batting in middle and I also had alot of lint but that is because youcut the fibes and you want it to be soft and the more you wash it
the softer it will become I did Dinosaur rag quilts and the boys and they love them .
