I am thankful that everyone knew what I was asking. A kind board member brought it to my attention that I didn't "proof" my question. I've asked the Admin to correct it for me. Thanks to all for your answers. You truly are all helpful.

I do wash baby quilts, but not others. Hope that helps!
As far as new clothes, I always wash them as well so that they immediately shrink into what their permanent size will be and if it's a fabric meant to be wrinkly, then I won't have worn it one time nice and crisp and then all wrinkly. Weird, I know! :lol:
And welcome to the board Gramma! :)
