    They have saved many a day for me. I think I use mostly Shout. If I do make something and think it might run more, I send a new sheet along with the topper or whatever to the recipient with instructions on what to do with it.

    I love them. Color catchers aren't available in Canada anymore but someone from this board sent me 2 boxes. Great folks on this board! Now that we're in Arizona for the winter I have stocked up & will be taking boxes of color catchers back to Alberta for both me & several friends.

    I love them and wouldn't pre-wash without them. Now get this- I saw something on TV a long time ago where a woman saved all of hers (the one use kind) and then used them as "art paper" for her scrapbooking and craft projects. So I save mine, press them, and when I have enough variety of colors, plan to use them to decoupage a picture frame. Recycling rules!!!

    Use them always!! Have a stash of them in my sewing room and put one in with the new "need to wash" fabric box. Love them.

    Love them! I've purchased a couple of red fabrics and will be using them today for sure.

    I wouldn't wash without them, both fabric and regular laundry. The brand new first-time-washed white turtleneck that got caught in with the red sheets is proof that they work.
