LindaM and Prism99 thank you so much... I would never have thought about scorching the starch... I am learning about starching.... I really like the texture it gives fabrics... but need to figure out how much to do and NOT to scorch it... pressing on wrong side , I guess... Thank you again. I soaked my project overnight and all but a little on the seams came out. I used peroxide on those and will try the lemon juice and sunshine later. I feel so much better this morning.. Someone suggested tea staining too, or I will quilt heavily in center and I think I can cover up what is left. I have said it before, but I need to say it again... you ladies are amazing... always the best info and support here. THANKS
