I had some fabric I was using for borders (bright red) for a quilt fora wedding gift for my nephew. I tested the fabric and discovered the "bleeding" by putting a small strip in a glass of hot water! Well, I looked all through Ocala, Florida, but found nothing in stock in the stores. Then, I went on the Rit Dye website. Rit has a dye setter product, which is not expensive, but which definitely works. I ordered the product online. and used it as directed. It works. I don't have any ownership interest in this company or anything, but I won't hesitate to recommend a product which works. I re-tested the red fabric after it was treated and it works! I won't do a quilt and put that much work in it without treating it! As the old saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!
