I always refold at center making sure selvages match up & as I press

I just bought my first piece of muslin, and yes, the clerk just brabbed the fabric and ripped away. It was sort of shocking!

Always!! Ironing first guarantees a more accurate cut. And accuracy at all stages makes all the difference!

Always Iron before I cut.
and if the fabric is a lighter weight or if I am cutting triangles or small pieces I will starch. this does make much nicer cuts and I iron after each seam also, a must if I want nice points! |

It used to be that you might not be able to iron out that default fold and then were stuck with it if you did not know before sewing it into a garment or quilt. So we would iron it out and be sure it was not faded along the fold. If it was we would take the fabric back as defective.

I do, I iron after prewashing, I iron after cutting (to verify straight) and after sewing pieces. I more than likely over iron things.
