@@tiffanyturcotte1470 not really. Homespun is a much looser weave. It will shrink quite a bit. Woven is 60 square and is made so your plaids are true plaids.

@@TheFabricPatch Thank you! I have been prewashing all my fabrics (straight to the laundry room when I come home from the fabric store) for the shrink factor and for the colour bleed risk. I had noticed that there is a lot less dye lost into the water in the past few years, but not understood why sometimes there was more and other times less... Now I guess it was whether I had some homespun in the mix! In Western Australia I have only seen homespun as plain unprinted, not solid colours as plain quilting cotton fabric. I will keep looking, but maybe I will only prewash the homespuns from now on! Can I combine quality quilting fabrics which have not been prewashed with ones which have been? or have I compromised those factors and should prewash (or not prewash) all the fabrics in the same project?

I also learned so much, even though I worked at a fabric store years ago no one ever taught us a lot of this info. Just one little thing (and I've heard so many others do this that it makes me think this must be a midwest thing) it's selvage, not salvage. Scrap metal is salvaged but fabric has a selvage! Now I feel petty for mentioning it but as a professional I think you'd surely want to pronounce it correctly.

Good, informative video for all levels of sewers/crafters. Personally, I will continue pre-washing all fabrics. I make quilts to be used. That means they will be washed. Most of those finishing chemicals are added to benefit sale display and once washed, the fabric often looks and feels different. I don't like surprises, I want to know how the fabric will look before I gift it. Besides, I have no interest in handling or breathing in those chemical coated fibers.

They keep my interest and teach me many things about quilting, fabric selection, techniques, patterns and so much more. Thank you for your enthusiasm and desire to share everything you have learned over the years about the subject. There are many quilters like myself who are just starting out and keen to learn. Thank you so much for your tips and advice. It is not an inexpensive hobby and so it is beneficial to get things right at the beginning.
