I know this has been discussed before, but I think I have a very good example for why I think tearing is a better option. I bought this fabric, brought it home and washed and ironed it. When I squared up the fabric to wrap around my ruler to store it, I found that it had been wrapped terribly off-grain on the bolt. It wasn't the quilt shop's fault. But I will lose several inches because of the bad wrapping at the factory.
