I buy them in bulk on Amazon. 72 sheets for like $11. I'd buy them even if they were full price. They make such a huge difference!

You'll find various debates about it, but in the end washing vs not washing is a matter of personal opinion. For clothing I prewash, but for quilting I don't. I'd keep going without prewashing to keep everything consistent, and don't wash it before quilting or you'll have fraying all over the place. Once you wash the finished quilt it will crinkle more than if you had prewashed, but it's not necessarily a bad effect.
Definitely use colour catchers when you wash your quilt to prevent dye runs.
No matter what I'm doing I throw everything in at the same time and if it's new I'll throw one or two of
these in. You can get them at Walmart or target cheaper.
It's not actually a fabric softener, it's a dye-trapping sheet that goes in the wash when you put in the clothes/fabric and most of the free dyes that come off get trapped in the sheet instead of on other clothing/fabric. They were recommended to me at a quilting store, and we've been using them for years now for new clothes and fabric. I've found them from time to time at Walmarts, but more reliably, you can find them on Amazon.

No problem! Those sheets are a lifesaver especially when you see how dark the sheet comes out in the wash and none of the dye is on your washer nor the other clothes.
If you want to be sure whether any clothing is "bleeding" in your wash, you can use color sheets like these https://smile.amazon.com/Shout-Color-Catcher-Trapping-Sheets-Count/dp/B01B0ADMP8/
