Does everyone do this? I was doing this tonight on 6 yards of backing for a twin quilt and it felt like it was taking forever when all I want to do is sandwich and start quilting :)
I do iron before cutting. On my backing? I iron, measure, cut, sew seam if needed, and iron again with statch. Any crease left is an invatation for a pleat in the backing. MHO
