Washing New Table Runners made with Old Fabrics
Right now, as we speak, I have a couple of Christmas table runners in the washing machine. I made them with fabric that I bought at an estate sale - 3 gigantic bins at $10/bin! It was in amazing shape, and some name brands. I have no idea how old it is, though. So ... I've got two table runners that were made with green, Red, and white prints being washed right now, along with a couple of Carbona color catchers. I don't have a question ... I just needed to talk to people who understand, while I sit here and bite my nails!! :shock:

They are Fine!!! Woo-hoo!!! :)
And the weird thing: the color on the color catcher was Green, not red!! |
Very good news! Each experiment is an individual experience, right?
|
This is why I wash fabric before cutting and I still bite my nails while it's in the wash. You are braver than me!
|
Glad it worked out for you! How did you resist sticking your head in the top loading washer see how they were doing?
|
Those color catchers really are amazing. Congrats on your great fabric score! Would love to see pics of what you made with it.
|
I'm so happy that all worked out. Great find.

Welcome to this board. I love color catchers. I am glad they are turning out well.
