Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum and really enjoy reading your input.
Today I bought 2 yards of pillow ticking (white w/blue stripes) at a fabrics store--I think it was JoAnn Fabrics. Anyway, do you recommend washing it or do I just use it the way it is? The reason I ask is when I bought some pillow ticking by Ox-Yoke it expressly states on the packet not to wash it because it will soften when a patch lube is applied. The ticking I bought today is just as stiff as the Ox-Yoke stuff. So, if at all, how do you guys treat pillow ticking bought by the yard before you rip it into strips.
Any help is appreciated!
