lint from minky
I made a quilt for my DGD using minky for the backing (no batting). I managed to contain the lint while cutting it by throwing it in the dryer every time I cut it, and serging it to the quilt top before quilting, so I thought that I was in good shape. But when the quilt was done, and the matching pillowcase (all have large black portions), and I washed them they came out so full of lint from the turquoise minky, that I have been eating up lint roller sheets by the dozen and I can't seem to ever get rid of the lint--it is really bad. It's getting on other things in my sewing space--it's like a monster that I can't get rid of. I tried rubbing it with the rubber drawer liner stuff, which gets some of it out, and I tried putting it in the dryer again with fabric softener sheets (which someone on QB suggested), but it keeps producing more and more lint. Help!
