Do you prewash charm packs?
When I do a quilt I usually prewash my fabric, but I didn't know if I should prewash a charm pack.....and then have to iron every little square. 
Thanks!

Re: Do you prewash charm packs?
I'll respectfully disagree. I sew clothes and the quality 100% cotton fabric still shrinks. If you are quilting, then I think most of you like the effect you get from some shrinkage. If you are sewing clothes, you HAVE to either prewash, or be aware that the finished garment will shrink some.
I made a Moda charm pack skirt for LA. I did NOT prewash (it seemed like too much work), and it did shrink. Luckily, "short" skirts are more acceptable on 2yo girls!
