Default Should I wash the top of my tea towels before giving as a gift?

Hi. I want to make several of these tea towels for the holidays but had a question, please. I am going to use a fat quarter pack for the top of the towel ....do I need to wash and dry the fat quarters? If so, how would I do that as I am sure they would come out a mess in the machine. I did wash and dry a bunch of the "towel" parts because I know that towels will shrink. Also, the cotton top may not look as crisp.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Here is a pic. Thank youi.
