I have not tried this product but have heard good things, it's called "Soak" and it's for delicate fabrics and quilts. You just "soak" the item and you don't need to rinse. I'm sure you can find it online. I have seen it in LQS's as well. I know that Elenor Burns has all her antique quilts hand quilted. I think it's a great idea to do that. I would love to see a picture of it when you can post one. I love GFG quilts.
