I am using the Sulky iron on transfer pen to put a design on 150 cotton tote bags. I was wondering if I need to wash the tote bags before I do that?

Not normally. I've never done it and don't know of anyone who has. However, there could be some odd tote out there that has some weird sizing on it. If it feels "normal", I would not be concerned. It is helpful to preheat the fabric with the iron right before you do the transfer, too. Remember, it transfers in reverse from your tracing, so make sure you have that right if it's applicable to your design. It is a permanent ink.
