Think I'll stick with Kona and Moda for my solids from now on!
I did the same thing w/red fabric. It took 7 washing & dryings. On the last try I threw in the last of my Retayne, and it finally worked. BTW, JoAnn's has Retayne on sale on-line for $1.74 for a 4oz bottle, but shipping is over $5.00.

Good luck!
