I am thankful that everyone knew what I was asking. A kind board member brought it to my attention that I didn't "proof" my question. I've asked the Admin to correct it for me. Thanks to all for your answers. You truly are all helpful.

I do wash baby quilts, but not others. Hope that helps!
As far as new clothes, I always wash them as well so that they immediately shrink into what their permanent size will be and if it's a fabric meant to be wrinkly, then I won't have worn it one time nice and crisp and then all wrinkly. Weird, I know! :lol: And welcome to the board Gramma! :) |

i wash before gift giving..i want to make sure it stays together! lol!

I didn't used to wash because I like the crisp "unwrinkled" look. I do wash now because I don't want whoever I give the quilt to think they did something wrong when they wash it and it comes out all wrinkled.

I do. Mainly because they were mostly baby ones and I have dogs
|
I always run mine thru a "cold, gentle" rinse to make sure the
colors are set in. I would hate for someone to love a new quilt then wash it and have it ruined! |
I always wash mine. I have cats so they need a good washing.
|
I wash every time no matter who/what it's for
|
I always wash. If something is going to happen, I want to know about it before giving it.
