I'm one of those who washes and starches every piece. With jelly rolls, I put them in a mesh bag or pillow case (with a scrap tie) and toss them into the machine. (I've even used old panty hose as a bag) I starch them bag and all with stay-flo and then take them out and lay on a towel to dry. However, I do press them when they are still damp.
Color catchers always go in with fabric in my world. Smoothing them up on the towel helps the pressing process.
