I wash them because I have dogs in the house, so as a precaution I just do it, though I like the "new" look.

Do you always wash it before giving it?

I wash all my fabric before I begin the quilt.

Yes I wash all my quilts before giving as gifts. I send a note on how to keep it looking great through all the years of using.
|
I wash my fabrics before quilting, but dont wash my finished quilts before gifting...UNLESS for charity that requires doing that.
|
I wash all fabric before I cut, but not after finished.

I agree I always wash and dry. I just know the one time I don't the whole thing will fall apart! LOL

I always wash & dry mine before giving to soften it and to make sure all sewing stays intact. I do however only use perfume & dye free detergents & dryer sheets, especially if it's a baby quilt.

I love these two quotes, both are so true.
No one has ever become poor by giving. - Anne Frank Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. - Martin Luther King, Jr. |
