I will commit to one set of 6 blocks.
I don't state on my swaps because I know sometimes if you have pre-cuts or scraps it can be difficult to wash. If you are able to easily wash, I would, if they are not easily washed, don't worry too much. If you are concerned about washed vs. unwashed when getting your blocks back, you can gently wash all the blocks once you receive them in a sink with dish soap. I have done this and had no fraying or falling apart. I hope that helps!!
