    If you are planning a double wedding ring the very best advice I could give you is to go to

    http:P//lindafranz.com/section/inklingo/62'
    You will find more info and more help than you can believe. When you look and think it looks comlicated, look again. It is NOT complicated and you'll meet the nicest folks you ever met. I am a very slow typer so it would take all night for me to tell you about it when Linda has the info all there---even free samples for you to try.
    I have NO connection with Linda Franz except enthusiam for every dealing I've ever had with her over a period of years

    Beware, I have read that the spoonflower fabrics are not always colorfast and can fade much more then the usual fabric because everything they have is pretty much custom made to order. So they don't go through the same screen printing processes major manufacturers do. You may wish to consider this for such a momentous occasion quilt as the wedding quilt.

    I went back through some old posts about this company

    I wonder if she soaked it in white vinegar for a while and dry in a hot dryer?
