one piece large backing
I purchased backing material for a queen sized quilt in the large sized backing, one piece. Since all the rest of the fabric in the quilt has been washed, should I wash this backing? I have always washed all my fabrics before using. It would be very hard to iron such a large piece after washing and drying. I would like to keep it as one piece, so don't want to cut into smaller pieces to back this quilt. My question is, should I use it as is or wash & dry and struggle with the ironing? Any suggestions.
