Then I throw the fabric in the dryer,and again walk away and do something else. It really is not that hard of a job to pre-wash the fabric. When you take the fabric out of the dryer, it's clean and soft and ready to use.
That's not the hard part...the hard part is untangling it, cutting off all the frayed strings on the edges despite

cutting with pinking shears and ironing 4-5 yards of fabric.
