    How does one pre-wash Bali Pop.....Hoffman strips of Batik fabric? Will it fray all around the edges? Want to start my next quilt soon soon.

    Bali pops cannot be prewashed. If you do they will fray and be ruined.

    Piece and Quilt first. Then wash with color catchers (Shout brand).

    We've had horror stories from some who have tried washing strips. Don't do it.
