washing fabric

I started to wash the fabric mainly to rid the possibility of color bleeding in the quilt, mainly the darker colors. Then I went to a class which the international quilter said she doesn't wash her fabric especially when using top quality material. Since I do all or most of my shopping in quilting stores, I quit washing. I was glad to hear that I didn't need to wash since ironing the material afterwards was getting to be quite a chore. :0)
There was a comment about ladies not using this blog. I for one had a difficult time trying to get in here. It was refusing my entries. Frustration could be one reason for not using this blog.
