Thanks for the update! Your quilt is looking much better. It was a very valuable lesson on what we can do if we have a bleeder. With the mottled background fabric, the judges will never know. Good save!

I'm so glad this worked on your beautiful quilt. I've been following this thread because I am not a prewasher and I have some of that same red to use in my next project. Guess what I did this am? Yes, prewashed that red piece. Didn't bleed, but I'm so grateful to all who posted their help.
Can't wait to see yours finished!
