I made up a logcabin quilt made of blues, reds and whites. Once quilted I washed it using my color catcher sheet. Didn't notice the bleeding till after I pulled it from the dryer...Egads!!!!! Thought it was a goner but someone here told me to just wash it again using the color catcher and sure enough it came out with no bleeding and what did bleed prior was gone.

I never wash my fabrics but I do starch them so if any bleeding is going to happen I'll know about it then. I always use color catchers when I wash the quilts before I give them out as gifts cause I know the recipent would have a hayday if it happened to them so I try to alleviate the anxiety for them.
