When I was very young, we used dry faultless starch mixed into a paste and applied to ink stains, and let them sit in the sun for several hours. The starch always seemed to draw out the ink stain, and the starch washed out. That has been many years ago, and I cannot guarantee this would work on the markers manufactured in our world recently. It'd be worth a shot! I've also used a hair shampoo (Suave-probably cheapest brand on the market) to remove ironed-in blood stains from a pin prick to my fingers. The fabric was 100% polyester, but I had ironed the baby dress and I just knew I had ruined it! Oh, so much work with all the ribbon and lace, etc. on that little dress! Of course, not as much as the quilt, obviously, but I wasn't ready to trash what I had done and start over without trying something! LOL Your save looks great and friendship is an extremely valuable commodity of relationships in this world. Where would we be without our friends?!
