Bleeding pen on "Guest Quilt"
My daughter and friend made a beautiful memory quilt for a friends wedding. When it was washed, 6 of the 81 squares bled terribly. The same pen (Sakura Pigma Micron pen)was used and it was the same cut of fabric (white Kona). I have used these pens many times with no problem. I heat set the top and washed with cold water and color catcher sheets (which came out white).
I think the only remedy now is to replace the squares that bled (which I do not look forward to, since the quilt is completed). I will have to get the bride to have those guests re do new squares.
I have already completed another guest quilt top for another friend and am worried the same thing will happen.
Will Retayne prevent that?
