This is pretty much how I do it. So far nothing has caused me a problem. I was watching Jenny Doan on Fons and Porter yesterday and for what it's worth, and I know it won't change anybody's mind, she said she never pre washes, that with the new fabrics it isn't necessary. Of course if you are allergic, or have other issues, or preferences, just keep doing what you are doing.
