I had a similar experience while qu...Hi Barb. :) <br />I had a similar experience while quilting - I was removing some blue-pen lines with mists of water which caused the fabric color to bleed. I took a deep (totally panicked) breath, let the quilt dry, finished quilting it, bound it and then popped it into the washing machine with a couple of color catcher sheets and as I knew it would, the color was captured on those sheets of "pure magic" and the quilt came out perfectly. Typically, I do not try to remove markings as I stitch or quilt, not those that will wash out with cold water. Don't know if you've tried the Shout Color Catcher Sheets, if not I recommend using them to wash all quilts or pre-washing fabric. I am glad that your stitchery quilt was saved from the clutches of that horrid green flair pen - I had no idea this pen could be used for stitchery marking. Once you quilt and bind, this is going to be the treasure you hoped for...all done up so lovingly. Happy quilting! :-DKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953124220818985910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1906296252131082397.post-41563946567130929102011-11-13T23:03:30.680-05:002011-11-13T23:03:30.680-05:00Oh no!
