I also use the Shout brand -- I get mine in WallyWorld next to the laundry detergents.

I use them when I'm washing fabric the first time -- especially darks or reds...

I use them, and taught my DD to use them when doing her laundry. She doesn't sort things! :lol: :lol:

I don't know if it's still around but there was one called a dye catcher. Did the same thing as the color catcher. Love them esp if DH does the laundry. He doesn't sort as well as he could or should.

Me too, except mine come from Wal-mart. We don't have a grocery store anymore.

I always use one when I wash my quilts for the first time. I just get the Shout brand ones. They are usually right by the laundry detergent.

Same I use shout color catchers as well. Every time.

Well thanks everyone one! And what a good Idea to give them with a quilt as part of gift...! So another question? Do you wash quilts before you give them away?
