I am starting a new quilt today and need to decide if I will wash first or not. The quilt I will be starting has applique and embroidery both along with the piecing.

Thanks to anyone that can help me make up my mind ( or a lot of days - find my mind). Please help me decide....
I forgot to say. My avatar is an embroidered quilt. I started machine embroidery before I started quilting. I needed something else to do with my embroidery, so learned how to quilt. I actually took classes just so I'd know how to square up my embroidery blocks. I quilt way more than I embroider these days. The next two quilts are also embroidered - the 9 patch - lol - are the cutest wild animals, and the other is a teddy bear cross stitch alphabet that was free designs.
