I have an ultra suede coat and it cannot be dry cleaned. I held my breath for the entire time it was in my washing machine and the dryer...it came out beautiful...
sooooooo, if it's the ultra suede, I don't think that you need worry about the washing.......and the chenille throw I made, had to washed and then dried several times to get the chenille effect........

that's been my experience with suede (the ultra suede) and chenille.

Although, I would definitely make sure that it isn't regular suede......
