    Safety pin the fabric??? I am not a prewasher, so I am curious about this.[/quote]

    Me too! Share[/quote]

    Before you wash the fabric, fold it and pin it with safety pins several places. You don't get a tangled mess when you get it out of the machine. It really works!

    This safety pin tip is really good! Thank you. (You could probably sell "washer pins" you know. :)

    You can burn a tiny piece of the fabric. Cotton will leave a fine ash that will blow away, a blend will melt and leave heavy ash or a blob.
