Your quilt is beautiful. Cold water, gentle cycle, Oxyclean and your mild detergent, softener. Gentle dry or hang to dry. I have never had to use Color Catchers, but then I pre-wash all fabric.
Good luck.

I think I would use a large front-loader washing machine -

If you have scraps of the fabrics you used - try washing them fist and see what they do -

So so beautiful! I normally don't prewash either but if it's a color that I think might run (like your purplish), I test first. If it runs then I wash all fabric I'm going to use in that particular quilt (and grumble the whole time I'm ironing/starching it :) )

If it bleeds dont dry it in a washer just keep washing with the color catchers

Great tips.... thank you soooooooooo much!

Good to know! Thanks!

It's going to be even prettier once you wash it. If that's even possible! I love the crinkly look of laundered quilts. What a great first quilt. You didn't mess around, did you?! Gentle everything and you should be fine. A color catcher or two can't hurt.
