flannel interfacing?

    flannel interfacing?
    on: April 23, 2009, 01:46:49 PM
    Is flannel interfacing just ANY flannel used as interfacing?  Can I use even a children's print as long as it won't show through? 

    Thanks for your help!

      I think indeed any flannel would work.  What kind of project are you using flannel as interfacing for?

          yes, you can use any kind of flannel.  pre-wash, though, if you're making something washable as flannel shrinks a lot.

            And I've even found that flannel will shrink after years of use if you've always washed it on cold, then you wash it on hot by mistake.  (and yes, it had always gone through the dryer after being washed cold.)
