Thanks for posting. I am currently finishing our Christmas quilt (yes, a little overdue ) and the backing is a dark red fabric, so I am going to try this, especially since there is white fabric on the front.

I have questions also. How do you do this? fill the washer and then pour it in? soak or agitate it then? Thanks for the help!

The recipe sounds great. I am also waiting to hear if the fabric needs to soak or just wash as usual.

Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I tried adding this to a wash and it made no difference to my fabric - red ran just the same the next time I soaked it. It went in the bin. I will be watching to see what others do with this.

Sounds interesting but I think it would probably only work for hand dyed fabrics? I will wait and see how it goes for others.
