How do you keep your thread from bleeding on your fabric?
So I have meaning to ask this for a while but keep forgetting to post it, I was wondering how you keep your thread from bleeding on to the fabric? I use to do lots of hand embroidery and now since I have started hand quilting the question is still on my mind, I remember I would always have issues with my red, blue, pink and green thread bleeding onto the fabric. I have heard of people soaking there thread to wash out any dye left in the thread. I would like to know if anyone has these issues and what your method is to fix it?
