Diapers for Burp Cloths? I used to use Babies R Us diapers but they are out of business. Can I please get recommendations for diapers that won't pill after washing? Or what brand of flannel to use instead? Thank you!
Update: I found my stash of diapers I use and I kept the package. They are Gerber Organic. The Babies R Us diapers were the ones I used before the Gerber. I really need to keep this straight!

You can actually buy diaper fabric. I got mine from Joann's. I use it to make dish towels and haven't noticed any pilling.

I always wash first because they are cotton and shrink and I don't want the designs to be messed up from shrinkage. That's how I know about the pilling.

My Walmart's were Gerber brand. Sometimes they have the prefolded with the padded center, and sometimes the flat.

My daughter-in-law called me last year when a sale was happening at Walmart and they were clearancing out some prefold diaper--I told her to buy me several pkg. They are upstairs in a box. They are trash as far as I am concerned--they are ripping out at the seam in some I opened to look at and not even washed yet. Was also going to do burp clothes with them--the only way that will work now is to hide that shred ripout place with wide ribbons or pretty fabric. The Birdseye Brand I think is what JoAnn's has and I do like that with a layer of good flannel between the outer and inner pieces.
