Default Slight running of color. Help!

I just completed a quilt with a lot of white in it (kona snow). The quilting is white. The other color are strong pinks and some green. I washed it in a big washer in cold water at the laundromat with colour catchers. The color catchers came out slightly pink. All the fabric was pre- washed.

It looked just fine when I took it out and dried it, but now, in the day light, I can see that the white isn't quite white anymore. I am frustrated and worried.

This is was a quilt I was commissioned to do by my daughter in law for her niece.

I don't know what to do. Should I try re-washing it? If so, with what? I don't know if she will even notice, but I can see it clearly now and I feel like I will be dishonest if I don't point it out.

Any thoughts anyone????
