I purchased 6 yards of solid red Kona cotton. I prewashed it and it bled terribly. I continued the washings with a dye catcher, in fact, I think I must have washed it at least six times now and the dye cloth still is coming out bright pink. I need to use this fabric to make a flag quilt for a soldier who is coming home from Iraq later this summer. I tried adding white vinegar to the last two loads, but it is still bleeding. Is there a remedy for this? I apologize if someone has asked this question before...I am sure it has already been discussed.
Thanks a bunch.
