Question Regarding White Minky or Fleece
 
Hi! I'm in love with a Tie Dye Minky pattern but it has quite a bit of white in it. Wondering if any of you Members have used white and, since it is made of polyester, did it turn a dingy grey? Thank you.

Are you planning to use it for a backing? How will the quilt be used? Daily use on the sofa, occasional use on the spare bed?? Who will be using it, kids, pets, senior?

Me, if this is backing, I would wash a piece with some of the fabrics from the top and see if it picks up any of the colour.

I have some with sheep and its just adorable. I have washed it and it looks just as cute as when I bought it.

I will be using it as backing for two girls. One is 20 and the other is 12. Thank you Meyert for letting me know that you have had good luck with it. I love it and want to use it. Haven't purchased it yet. It is $12.90 per yard and I will need at least 5 yards.

This is the Minky Fabric. It is by Shannon, which is the same as the sheep minky that Meyert has.

It is GORGEOUS.

since it's a poly I would doubt that it would bleed (could rub off, but doubt that too). Bet it would be fine.
