I do NOT think it is intended to make a statement about weather they should be pre-washed or not. If someone washes ALL fabric the minute they take it into their home and the swap calls for "NOT WASHED" fabric, then that person would not be able to pull from their stash and would have to go out and purchase fabric just for this swap so as to have some that hasn't been pre-washed. Does that help??
