I have several lengths of fabric that I'll eventually take to a shirtmaker to have made up. I have not done CMT with shirts in the past and am wondering if I should pre-wash the fabric - if I were to do so, what would be the best method (washing machine vs. hand wash / air dry vs. machine dry)?
Is there any risk of the edges fraying or other risks I should be aware of - and any methods to mitigate those risks? How many washes would be required to prevent future shrink (I'm sure there is variance from fabric to fabric, but anyone who could ballpark this would be helpful).
Also, does anyone know if Geneva pre-washes shirt fabric brought in for CMT?
Thanks
