Question Fabric bleeding

I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips for prepping dark (especially red) fabrics?

I always pre-wash my fabrics (warm wash, cold rinse, no fabric softener), and the last few quilts I've used red in I've soaked the red cottons in a vinegar/water bath, and the fabric still bled onto my adjacent white when I washed the assembled quilt the first time.

Any tips? Is there a product I don't know about for this?

TIA!!!
