Quilting Fabric

So I started pressing some fabric for a quilt I'm working on for a Christmas Gift.. and I thought I had pulled it from the pile I had washed.. As I got through the pile, I started to realize.. wait this stuff hasn't been washed.  I was just over 3/4's of the way through it!  *sigh*  Have to wash it tomorrow morning, press and cut.
I thought about not washing it, but there is quite a bit of red and cream fabrics.  I'm afraid of the colours running...

Do you normally wash your fabric before using it?
