Just wondering if a brand new cloth nappy (fuzzi and honeychild) should the inner fabric pill after one wash? is this normal?

I wouldn't expect any nappy to pill after just one wash

Is it the fabric of the nappies pilling, or did you wash them with something that has stuck to the nappy fabric?
I made the mistake of washing my new pockets together with some terry flats and the dark microfleece came out all white from the terry, but it came off with a lint roller, lol

Give whoever you bought them from a call, I'm sure they'd be more than willing to help you out.

I would definitely contact whoever you bought them off as FBs and Honey Child nappies are made with fleece that is not meant to pill.
When you say "inner fabric" I'm assuming you mean the white fleecey bit of the nappy?

Sunshine, I have to say that mine have done this since day one! Most annoying and I am starting to wonder if I should buy a lint remover or something. I have never washed mine with anything other than other nappies either. In saying that - it doesn't seem to bother Sam at all
