I didn't pre-wash my fabric and last night while i was machine quilting, i noticed a red tint to my machine...any suggestions on how to get that off?

TIA

Have you tried the easy first - sponge & soap? I'd also try one of the Mr Clean or Comet sponges - they seem to clean everything and I don't think they're abrasive.
