Pencil marks on a quilt top
#1
I have a quilt top my MIL made and marked about 7 or 8 years ago. I just found it in a box of stuff we recieved after she passed away. She marked it in a shell pattern, it's a large top 108" x 110". How do I get the pencil marks out? I plan on machine quilting it in a different pattern. Should I wash it before I quilt it or after?

I got yrs old pencil marks out by soaking in Oxy clean and also rubbing the marks a bit while wet. good luck. if you wash it, do it on water only. no detergent. that sets marks for some reason.
