When purchasing cotton fabric at a fabric store, does washing the sizing out change the thickness of the fabric. For example if some cotton drill was .020" when measure compressed in a mike or calipers in the store, would it still be roughly .020" after washing? Not going to quibble over .001" but .005" would be a problem.
edit- I'm worried that it might get thinner after washing but I really don't know.
