In another hand, many of you don't wash those smaller cuts..my question is if most of the fabric shrink, what's happening with your quilt that you work on for so many hours :-( Unless after it is quilted it does not shrink as it is hold by the quilting step??

SOOO confused.... what should I do what should I do?
To be honest I love the look that quilts get when they shrink in the wash. theres just something about it that appeals to me.
Me too! I call it 'blooming' the quilt. I just love the added texture that get.
