I am working on a charm quilt with 2 1/2 inch squares. I started cuttting squares out of my pre-washed stash at home. I needed more fabric (of course) so I ordered a 2 lb. bag of scraps from someone on etsy. The scraps I ordered are anywhere from a few inches to 1/4 yard but they are not washed. Here's my problem: Should I wash and then press 2 lbs of fabric scraps or should I just leave them unwashed and hope that they don't shrink more than the other squares? Seems like I should probably wash and press but boy does that sounds like a lot of work!
