I would suggest to anyone planning on using the red/white combo in a quilt to read, read, read, the pros and cons of Retayne and Synthralpol before starting your project.[/QUOTE]
My kids love Christmas in July....It usually takes about that long to find what I put away when I purchased it early for the Christmas before!!!! I just found the Pampered Chef double boilers the other day!!! lol You have just put the fear in me in using Retayne. I've used it for years, following the hot water wash for 20 minutes, using one teaspoon for each yard, and drying immediately instructions, with NO problem. You mentioned 'reading the instructions first"....what didn't you do that may have caused your whites to turn pink? I've NEVER had to use color catchers.
