I stopped using black and other dark solids and have turned to tone on tones. I used a solid black in quilt, and while it had a lovely hand, it picked up every fuzzy known to man! I find the tone on tones a better fit. They still 'read' solid, but the fuzzies are not as noticable.

I just read an article about fabrics bleeding and it is the best I have seen to date. She did some testing on her own and posted her findings.

and an FAQ post as well:

note that this is what has worked for her, but its always helpful to see how others solve a problem. I am bookmarking this for later use! I know I will need it someday!
