Flannel Fabrics

When it comes to flannel quilt fabrics, there are probably many things that spring to mind, but cozy, warm, soft, and comfortable are likely at the top of your list! Flannel quilt fabric is typically made from cotton, wool, or a blend of fibers for extra softness and warmth. Flannel fabric has a brushed surface that creates the fuzzy texture it’s known for, making it ideal for quilts intended for colder climates or for those seeking extra warmth.



Flannel Fabrics: Fun, Fuzzy, and Useful


Because of its many wonderful characteristics, flannel fabric is often used for shirts, jackets, pajamas, robes, baby blankets, burp cloths, and quilts. Flannel fabric is an excellent choice when you’re looking for a soft, sturdy, substantial fabric–something that will keep its wearer warm and withstand wear & tear. If you are looking for 100% cotton flannel fabric for your next project, Missouri Star is the place to shop!

We also have adorable baby flannel fabric prints and plenty of ideas for what to do with them! Every parent needs receiving blankets for swaddling and burping the baby (watch the video below to see Misty make a flannel receiving blanket in a snap!). These blankets are also indispensable as car seat or stroller shades, surfaces on which to lay the baby for nap or tummy time, and impromptu diaper change mats. They also make soft and cuddly loveys. You could even make a fitted flannel sheet for your child’s crib using our easy-to-follow pattern and free tutorial from our Creating for Kids tutorial series.



When selecting flannel fabric for quilting, it's important to pay attention to quality. High-quality flannel will have a dense weave and feel soft to the touch, while cheaper flannels may pill or lose their softness over time. The good news is that we carry only the best flannel quilt fabrics on the market, ensuring that your quilts and sewing projects will stay cozy and beautiful for years to come!
