They worked on my Dear Jane potholder quilt disaster! I have always loved this book and all of Susan McCord's quilts. What a talent she was.

You may have to repeat if the bleed is stubborn. This happened to me when I was blocking a hanging to dry and had a number of areas that bled (even though all fabric was prewashed). You should have seen all the bits of Colour Catcher basted on different areas of my hanging catching all the areas that bled out. The sheets started to catch the excess dye and as it dried, I would check an area and then just wet the sheets again with a sponge and water and eventually, the bleed out disappeared and the sheets captured any excess dye to prevent this from happening again (I hope).Rose Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13222914515169308269noreply@blogger.com
