Default Any special considerations for

Fabric that has a metallic sheen, especially these beautiful holiday fabrics. They feel just a tad thicker and stiffer than regular quilting cotton and I'm wondering....

1: How will they wash up?
2: How will they press? I am a starch and pressing fanatic before I begin piecing, makes it so much nicer, I don't want to ruin them.
3: I'm concerned that if they don't press well or as crisp as others that my seam allowances may be thicker and not lay as nicely.

I don't have many, just a few fat quarter bundles and jelly rolls.
