    Hello, and welcome from Idaho!
    You will find about half of people wash and about half people don't wash.

    If I am buying from yard sales or thrift shops it goes straight into the wash.

    I think it's a personal preference, I don't but I used to.

    I don't wash my fabric before cutting because I prefer the stiffness of the sizing in the fabric. It's definitely a preference.
