But I have had good luck when a quilt runs in the wash by re-washing it with Color Catchers by Shout and using Oxy-Clean in the wash water. You might be able to get some of the pink out still...<br /><br />Thanks for linking up with Whoop Whoop Friday!!Sarah Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18393284767325742399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4248689249159195962.post-43408324173149491202012-03-04T18:23:21.546-08:002012-03-04T18:23:21.546-08:00Beautiful work!

I'm not big on prewashing, either; I like working with the crisp newness of unwashed fabrics, and I haven't had many strange adventures with washing. Gorgeous finish! Love the quilting, too!Susana Neigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02466149644744241796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4248689249159195962.post-4229576860786492012-03-04T10:58:53.126-08:002012-03-04T10:58:53.126-08:00Love the quilt.

It's a beautiful quilt! I don't listen to those who say you don't have to pre-wash your fabric. I always do and find some bleeding from time to time, even the best quality. Some say you should put dye-catcher sheets in with the first wash. Maybe you could try that too.Kati from Kati's Quiltinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06629049955792425959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4248689249159195962.post-46436694339825356642012-02-28T17:12:55.927-08:002012-02-28T17:12:55.927-08:00@ Viridian - Yes, the bleeding came out perfectly ...@ Viridian - Yes, the bleeding came out perfectly in the white vine fabric, not patchy at all.

It's hard to believe - it came out even, not patchy (Which would happen to me!) Ah well. I pre wash all my fabrics but still worry.viridianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07938256248645774087noreply@blogger.com
