It's very frustrating to have conversations with other quilters and have them
completely miss this point when I tell them the marks come back if the quilt gets cold.
I know the point of the marks returning, it means the ink is still in the fabric. That is obvious. My point is I don't care that much. I haven't had any problems with ghost marks or returning marks after washing the quilt. The first wash my quilts get is in hot water with a Tide Pod and color safe bleach and if I think it's needed, a color catcher.
