Thanks for all of the advice! I really hate the washing, but I am trying to be better about it ahead of time. It does make sense to wait until I move, but that's at least 6 months from now. And I am sure that I will be making quilts right up until the packers come. So I won't know what fabrics I will want to use until a new project comes up. So if I wash ahead of time, I can just pull and cut what I need w/o having to wash it before starting that project. That gives me enough of a reason to wash them when I get a free chance. I am hoping to work on quite a few projects before the summer move. So I may use up quite a bit of fabric, especially since I am going to TRY to not buy anymore, just shop in my stash. So I'm happy I washed a lot of it. Love the Color Catchers, too. It's a shame they don't come in boxes of 100 or more!
