Yes, that's exactly what it is - sometimes called a "gull wing" drying rack, I think. It's wire coated with some sort of white plastic. It folds up nice and flat to store in the laundry room when I'm not using it.

Hello Jennifer

I always wash my fabrics, FQ, metres of etc. The one exception is Jelly Rolls I read somewhere not to wash these. Anyhow I wash all my fabrics by hand in my sink & then rinse by hand until the dye runs clear. I then put the fabric into my washing machine in a Mesh Bag & put through a rinse cycle along with fabric conditioner.
I then tend to just press them straight from the machine & trim any straggly frayed edges & lay them on my airer to give them a final air.
Hope this helps.

I use a nylon mesh bag and I find that helps some. I've tried clipping the corner and didn't think that did much to lessen the fraying but maybe it was because i didn't pink them I just clipped so I will use my pinking shears next time.

I also find that good quality fabric does not fray. But the cheap fabric does...

I always wash my fat quarters in the washing machine. Never had a problem.
