Years ago, when I was in college, I made my very first quilt - a t-shirt quilt. Once, when washing it while I was home on break I accidentally left it in the washer overnight and the dark blue flannel squares that were next to all of my precious t-shirt squares bled. And bled. And bled. Every single one of my t-shirt squares had big lines of blue along the edges. <br /><br />I'm the sentimental type, so I couldn't bring myself to toss it even though it looked terrible. I think it sat in the closet for a good long while. <br /><br />Flash forward over 10 years later and I was using it again to keep my kids warm in their beds at night. This meant frequent washings again... One day I pulled it out of the dryer and wouldn't you know it all that blue was gone! Now my quilt looks like new again. :)<br /><br />So I guess you never know... maybe with enough washings it will all come out in the wash someday! xoxoneedle and nesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051168892312750022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55779963649069005.post-42364807332459067752015-01-14T13:46:25.911+00:002015-01-14T13:46:25.911+00:00Maybe wash out your machine at a high setting just...Maybe wash out your machine at a high setting just in case.
