    Great minds..... we had a bag of goodies donated to our quilting group. some were bits and pieces and I have them zipped in a lingerie bag all ready for the laundry. Then I can start another string quilt.

    When washing large pieces, I use the large mesh laundry bags. No ravels, no tangling. Also wash lace tableclothes that way. They don't stretch out of shape, etc.
