If you haven't already, try washing it several times in Synthrapol. That might get it out.
Thanks--I have tried that and everything else I can think of. It is faded to a pale pink now and I just can't seem to get the rest of it out. I am so irritated with it that I put it away in the middle of quilting it. I doubt I will ever finish it.
