I don't think I would wash it without her knowing. I would show her the corners and offer to launder it or give her a break in the price of the work you did. I would be afraid if I washed it, the colors might fade and you would have a bigger problem on hand to explain to her. Good luck--I'm sure she will have some understanding of the situation.

How dark are the colors used in the quilt top? If you don't think they will fade I'd hand wash just the corners in cold water (you'll need help) and use a mild detergent and rinse well and hang in the shade on a clothesline. You can then press lightly or steam that section when dry. I would probably do one corner first just to make sure everything is okay. Is it just the bare corners, binding or a large section?
