Color Catchers
Just a reminder to use Colors Catchers or some similar product when washing quilts. I always wash mine after quilting to remove the pencil lead that I mark my tops with, but I include two of the Color Catcher sheets. It was good that I did too. They were dark red when finished. I know that the border fabric was prewashed, but it may have still bled. The other fabrics probably weren't because I did not always wash fabric before making clothes from it. These are great for attracting the loose dye. The top shows no signs of fading. So I know they work.

ahh that's a good tip. Thanks for your kind comments on my blog regarding an e-shop. I know I can do quality but quantity is the problem! Perhaps I'll have a go!
