About two years ago, I attended a showing of Quilting Treasures fabrics and the factory rep had a slide show of how their brand of fabric is produced. After it's printed and is being rolled onto the bolts, the fabric undergoes a HOT water bath! So their fabrics are already preshrunk and excess dye (if any) washed out of the fabric. I look for QT fabric as I figure I can just do a rinse and spin instead of a complete wash. Good to hear that their red didn't bleed!
