Default Do I need to wash precuts?

I'm new here and a newbie quilter. It's so encouraging to know I have all your advice and experience at my fingertips! I have a question about using precuts.

The quilt I'm making is going to be a combination of precut jelly roll strips, some unlaundered yardage from the same collection (for border and binding), a neutral colored cotton sheet cut into strips to be used on quilt top with precut strips, and a new, unlaundered cotton sheet for the backing. So the only fabric that has been laundered is the neutral colored cotton sheet. This sheet will make up about a quarter of the quilt top. The quilt is going to be used regularly, so it will be washed from time to time. Should I wash all the fabric, or just start sewing?!
