Chriss,

I have found that all reds run! Especially in hot water. I tried the vinegar method first, in cold water - thought it had stopped running. Nope. Then bought the Retayne, followed the directions exactly and it stopped running. I have fallen in love with Retayne. Works wonderfully.

Jana, is Michael aware of your love for Retayne....can I get it at a drug store or grocery store?

Chriss, I think I've only seen it at the quilt shops. I'm going on wed. to check it out and maybe find some W on W. Have a good night!

I found mine at my LQS, but checked on line, Walmart had it and I think Hobby Lobby as well. JoAnn's carries it too. The big bottle cost me $7, well worth it. You only use a teaspoon of Retayne per yard of fabric. My only draw back is, I can't use my "new" because it is a energy efficent machine, so I did it by hand in my sink. Worked fine.

I might become a pre-wash quilter with this stuff.

Michael knows that he might be replaced -LOL I know when the railroad is up and running, I will be!

Izzy, your block is beautiful. Don't worry for the colors shown on screen, it is same for my blocks. They look darker than should be.

Chriss, to let you know that I just came back from the post office and that my blocks are on their way. Hope it won't take too long to reach you! :-)
