JoAnn's Cozy Flannel

So, it looks like Joann's Cozy Flannel is actually some rugged stuff. I
couldn't pull apart threads like I can on most other flannels. Anyone else
have any experience with finished garments from this stuff? I'm thinking
about doing a shirt out of their Rust/Copper color.

If that is their heavyweight flannel, it appears to be sturdy stuff. I
wouldn't take time to make a shirt out of the lighter weight flannel,
but the heavyweight looks durable enough for menswear. Remember to buy
enough yardage so that you can match the plaid at the seams.
The light weight flannel makes decent twin sized bed sheets for cold
winters, though. The spaces between the weave traps warmth. I used to
make my kids' sheets. Nothing cozier when you top the sheets with a
feather comforter.

These are solid colors. Their tobacco is a bit too camelly for me though.

And enough that you can preshrink it! Flannel can shrink a lot, and it's way
better to do that before you sew it up.
