Smaller pieces...put them in a salad spinner with hot water and soap/detergent/whatever. Let it soak...then swish, spin, rinse, spin, rinse spin. Pieces wont tangle like in the washer and you will freshen the pieces. I'm alergic to sizing in fab so I do this with fat quarters.
So glad you found such a good bargain! You will spend hours fondling, dreaming and playing with it. What a wonerful way to add to your stash. We are all so happy for you.

Actually I've hit 3 really good sales this year. My best was 25 cents per plastic grocery bag. I even surprised myself at the amount of fabric I packed in those bags. I'm going to try really, really, hard not to buy any more. It's time to get down to business. :thumbup:
Hey cjomomma, NorbanaQ sent me some of her winnings. I must say that your's looked even worse in person! :lol:

I normally wash and dry fabrics as soon as I get it home. In this case with the strips and UFOs I would not wash them. I also always wash and dry a quilt when I finish it.
Long story short, I would wait until I totally finish a quilt before I washed it.
