And since they were already prewashed and dried, they wouldn't have shrunk much anyway, but no, you're right- if they were cut to size, I wouldn't be washing and pressing them again. <br /><br />I prewash everything because the stuff that is in new fabric makes the skin on my hands go bad. Yes, even fat quarters. And there's a certain comfort in knowing/hoping that things won't bleed later. :) <br /><br />People laugh- anything that sits still at my house is liable to have a cover or cozy made for it. Even wine boxes have covers.

I want to try just one block of that pattern, but MUCH bigger than the itty bitty ones you make! :)<br /><br />You cut your fabrics then wash/press them? What about shrinkage? You know I'm not a prewasher - but I'm thinking about changing that...Will take forever to wash what I have and arrange it. Do you even prewash fq's?<br /><br />And great idea on the ipad cover! We have them here - and I might have to just make me and Kacie one :DKandrahttp://www.kandrayoung.comnoreply@blogger.com
