THEN noticed that the towel I used to get rid of a stubborn one had some color on it. OOPS!
Took the fabric and washed it and set it out to dry.
This morning I ironed it.
As I was ironing it, it dawned on me that I shouldn't have marked that fabric anyway. The actual fabric that I need to mark was sitting over in the corner of the room. THAT fabric I know needs to be prewashed so that is on the agenda tonight.

I'm partnered with McQuilter (Sue) again. I'm almost finished with my Feb project. Just finishing the binding on a table runner that I really like -- I have one block left over that I will use to make one for myself. -- I'll post the back fabric when I take pix.
We leave Destin, FL on Sat morning and won't get to Olympia til the 10th or so of March so I will have to pass on March. I'll be busy making curtains and buying furniture for the new condo out there.
On the way west we will be visiting quilters that I have never actually seen but beeen friends with for over 10 years.
