I'm writing to ask if you would share information about my textile workshop in Ghana with anyone who might like to make their own cloth. Details are at: http://www.culturalcollaborative.org/textile2012.pdf Many Thanks, Ellie Christine,

I've avoided buying heavily waxed fabric for that reason. I would definitely wash and dry the fabric by itself in whatever manner I intended the finished item to be cleansed. If the quilt will go in the washer & dryer, do the same with the fabric and all before cutting. If washing it doesn't get the wax out, you might try boiling the fabric and weighting it in the hot water. As the water cools, the wax will float to the surface and can be skimmed or scooped off. Good Luck Hi Donna,

Does the wax on the fabric gum up a sewing machine? Do you usually wash and hang to dry before cutting for a quilt? Thanks for any help you can give as I have never worked with these beautiful fabrics from Africa before. A friend just brought me beautiful fabric from Africa to quilt with.
