Glow in the Dark Fabric??? Questions!
I bought some Glow in the Dark Fairy Frost fabric in white this week.
Decided to take the risk, even though the store clerks could not answer my questions.
I brought it home, and charged it up.
... and was able to see how it looks in the dark!
It will work for the intended project.
Though the questions I have are ...
Does washing affect it any?
Or quilting?
Thank you!

A friend of mine yrs. ago made a Halloween quilt of glow in the dark ghosts and skull bones for her little grandson. He didn't like it in the dark. LOL I didn't hear anything about it not glowing after washing. Try just a piece of it to see.

I made my neighbor's kids pillow cases out of glow in the dark fabric a few years ago, still going strong after several washings 
I didn't quilt it, but I don't see why that would cause any problems.

According to Michael Millerl's website, it will last thru 3-5 washings. . . http://www.michaelmillerfabrics.com/...w-in-dark.html

If it had not been for the clerk, I would have just thought it was a plain white cotton ... as I am sure that many others would.
