BJ I have read some of your other posts as I try to soak up the communal knowledge, but I still don't get 'don't prewash'
What if I do a gift quilt and someone washes it and it gets all wrinkled up in an odd way? If the fabric is going to act up, isn't it best to know it ahead?
On the other hand, right now I am sizing the prewashed fabrics into submission so I can do triangles and tame a couple unruly fabrics.
If it were for me, I could take the shriveled mess and 'gift' it to my loving lab Cherie, who could use a new blankie.
Can you explain this for me? I have read other posts and it appears to be something of a religious issue. My LQS says it is aestethetic - if you like the cottage cheese look.
Thank you
