Ditto for me. Synthropol would be my choice as well. Like Lori says, is suspends the dye in water instead of allowing it to bond with the fabrics. Color catchers can be made by soaking pieces of absorbent fabric in soda ash which will attract dyes to bond with those pieces of fabric hopefully, instead of your quilt.
