When washing large pieces of fabric, I serge the ends together. This not only stops the fraying, but also keeps the fabric from twisting or tangling in the wash and makes it easier to iron.

This is a great technique to share with others. I also sew the ends together which is quite helpful. Thanks!

if the fabric is long, I sew the two raw edges together to limit twisting.

I'll try that. I remember making a fringed scarf for a 4H project and that was the way to limit the "fringing" or fraying. I usually serge the cut ends of pieces that go into the washer.
