Hi, all you wonderful quilters. I hope you can help me with
my concern. I have a twin brother on dialysis, and I made him a quilt. He requested red, white and blue as he served in the military 20 years. Now the quilt is finished, and I am ready to wash it in cold water before I take it to him. Idid the binding in red and bordered it in dark blue. I am very concerned that the color will bleed on the white blocks. The blocks are also red and blue with the white. It being patriotic colors, has anyone else had trouble with bleeding of these colors? , |
definetely use a color catcher...but mostly wanted tos ay your avatar quilt is beautiful !
|
Thank you Kimmie. My wonderful friend made the wall quilt for me as a Christmas present. I love it, too.

use a color catcher....cold water - maybe add vinegar to the rinse water to set the color for future washes
|
Ditto on the color catcher in the wash.
Also, DITTO on the beautiful wall hanging. |
I would use a color catcher just to be sure!!

I would definetly use a color catcher. Red & blue are both bad at bleeding.

I would use several color catchers/
