Washing Fabric
#1
I was wondering if anyone else had tried this. I saw a show on TV years ago about washing large pieces of fabric. The lady said to fold the fabric in a accordian style with the two edges of the salvage on opposite sides. Then to put large safety pins in along the salvage edges. This keeps it from twisting up as it washes and dries. I tried it for the first time yesterday, and it worked like a charm. I had a piece almost 7 yards long to wash. The salvage edges did not dry completely, but that was the only thing.

I also have used this read it on one of the groups years ago.
I generally don't wash my fabric( unless it is required- swap etc) but I had purchased a large box of fabric art an auction that smelled! Used this tip and had it all washed up in no time and no twisted mess!
