    I think the suggestion about the Synthrapol is interesting. I will have to look into this product.

    I wash all fabric from fat quarters and larger.
    I do not wash charms or other small cuts.

    I was always told if it's goiing to be a wall hanging ro anything like that pre washing was not necessary. If the project was going to be a quilt that gets used, you want to prewash so it doesn't shrink and ruin the quilt.
