Patice, I need some help too! I am working on the Cardinal wall quilt by Elanor Burns. This is my first quilt for my 86 yr.old MOM. I AM TRYING TO FINISH FOR CHRISTMAS. Problem: The Moda Marble-deep burgundy is still sitting in a bowl in red water. I have washed it by hand about 8 times the water is still full of dye. What can I do? I have used a drop of woolite with both hot and cold water...no matter the water is still colored.
Can I use salt..suggested in the chat room? I'm trying so hard to do the "perfect" quilt for my MOM...don't want to ruin it with this fabric.
thought Moda would be quality.....I paid 8.99 yd. for this fabric...I guess feel/look/name doesn't mean great.
Please advise.
Thank you. so much for your help.
