I have had the same experience and I have no idea what to do about it.I made my daughter a superqueen sized double wedding ring quilt for Christmas last year. I wanted to enter it in our fall fair in Oct., and brought it home. I decided to wash it before entering it in the Fair, It really wasn't dirty, but I wanted it to smell fresh. WELLLLLLL you guessed it bled in several places. I prewashed all of the fabric before starting the quilt. I have tried everything, and read about the quilt the lady just made that also bled, but I am not familiar with what she is going to try to get the bleed out. Anyone who knows and knows where I can get this stuff, please HELP Thanks, Gerbie

Thanks, I will look for both, but I am new at this site and I do not do much on the internet, please explain or tell me what and where is LQS? Sorry, but I have no idea , also where would I go on the internet to look for this Synthrapol, and just exactly what is it, a powder, liquid or what? I really appreciate your time and truly want to get my daughter's quilt saved if at all possible. Thanks!!! Where I live we do not have a JoAnns shop. I guess I would have to go to their site on the internet, I live in far West Texas, away from everything.
