if you only saw what I did at a big box fabric store you would certainly wash before using. The gal was heavily perspiring and wiped herself down with fabric. Luckily one of the clerks saw her. Made her leave then had to cut at least 2 yards off. if the clerks are in doubt they often just send the bolt back with a damage claim. You may want to wash next time.
