Cheap hairspray took out a ink stain in my carpet. My husband sells chemicals and I called him when that happened. And he was right! The cheaper the better he said. My dog had chewed an ink pen in the middle of my living room. He is a white dog trying to look like the "blue dog" I guess!

If all the above fails, you can try the dye remover stuff that comes in a box next to fabric dyes. Be careful how you apply it because it acts like bleach. Normally it is used to remove dyes from clothing/fabric in preparation for dying them.

should say spray it on...leave for a while, (it may still look like it's there but don't worry) then wash normally with liquid or whatever you normally use for your quilting

Try Grandma's Secret Spot Remover. I got a bottle at Hancock for just that reason - a black spot of ink on a cream colored background. It did a pretty good job of removing it.

Lysol Kitchen Cleaner works great on ink without hurting the fabric. I use it for everything around my house.

I haven't tried it on a quilt, but fingernail polish remover will take out ink. Whatever you use, test it out first. Best wishes!
