Otherwise, I'd try BIZ or Grandma's Spot Remover.

I have used this several times with great success. I would suggest you try putting a dab on the back in the seam allowance to be sure it is ok on your fabric before trying it on the front. Also BE SURE you don't get it on the enamel of your washing machine...it will dull the finish.

My husband had a shirt with red sauce stain. Treated it with Shout and washed it. It still showed. So I got out the peroxide (sp) and dabbed it on the spots. It scared me at first as it made just a yellow spot on the stain. Washed it again all gone and it did not discolor. My friend who told me about this says she uses for everything including carpet and curtains. Just a thought.

I use hydrogen peroxide to get tough stains out ... works on blood. I soak a makeup cleaning pad in it and gently wet the spot ... spots disappear quickly and do not leave a residue.

Try some fresh lemon juice. just put around the stain and coax it to the center a let sit until spot is gone. so easy to sponge out.

I agree with the oxyclean. Had a rust stains on beautiful piece of irish linen and oxyclean took it right out with no damage.

I would try peroxide on a Q-tip, dab and rub a little ans see if that works. White vinegar might also work.

No suggestions but wanted to say it's a cute quilt.
