I love the crinkled look washed quilts have, so almost always wash my quilts before giving them away.
Wow, GrammyP, I too, wash fabrics before working with them because if I don't, it also bothers my finger tips. You are the only other person I have heard say the same thing. Guess I am not weird, huh? Thanks for sharing.

:D
