Default Firsts... an experiment of sorts

I'm starting a new quilt called Color Me Crayons and I've decided it will be a quilt of firsts for me.

It's the first time I've ever bought a pattern for a quilt. This one just struck me so strongly, I had to have it. Following directions is NOT my strong point though. Just figuring out the fabric requirements was a chore for me, although I'm sure they were very clearly written for the average person, so we'll see!

This will be the first time I DON'T pre-wash my fabric.

And, I bought a cotton quilting sateen for the background fabric, because I liked the sheen factor.

So, altogether, this could go well or could go....not so well.

I guess we'll see.

For those who don't wash beforehand, do you still starch?
