so that means that Moda fabrics done correctly won't bleed? Because of their process of setting dyes? I wonder if all major manufacturers do this and that is why the quilt stores say it isn't necessary to prewash because of bleeding? I realize folks prewash because of chemical sensitivities, and some posters have seen shoppers wipe sweat off themselves with bolts of fabric, but those are different reasons than bleeding? I've never had a quilt ruined because of bleeding and I am not a pre washer. I also buy fabrics from "hither and yon". I guess I am one of the lucky ones who hasn't encountered a Moda fabric that is missing a step!!! So interesting.
