If you have more than a yard, if the fabric is cotton, if itwas expensive, if you really like the color family but don’t care about thecolor intensity, try washing in a mild solution of chlorine bleach and hotwater. Rinse at least twice. Repeat both steps until there is no color residue.Experiment on a small swatch. I’ve done this a few times with blues that ran,was pleasantly surprised at the new look and was able to use the fabric forother projects. Sorry about adding the picture...it has nothing to do with this reply! I'm new to QB...was just trying to add a profile image.
