It seems to me that the reasons for washing would be as valid for small pieces of fabric as for large pieces.
I don't buy pre cuts. To many tales of shortages and I don't find the gamble and cost worth it. I do wash everything that comes in the house. Small stuff gets done in a bucket.

We work so hard and put so much into our craft, why hesitate to make sure our fabric is ready to go and in good order by testing it for bleeding and shrinkage before we use it.

I would rather not cry after the fact.
