Anyway, I finally washed it and the flannel (hot pink) has bled through to the front where the quilting lines are!!!! Oh no!!!! So, so sad Is there anything I can do now?
So sorry! Try Clorox2 (not the bleach, but the blue stuff). Soak it in a somewhat strong solution for an hour. I have had good luck with it - almost always. It worked for a batik and white quilt I made.

BTW, I've been lurking for a year and have learned so much here.
