    I keep a liter of club soda in case of wine spilled on my carpet; it takes wine out so I would try it on a scrap of fabric to see if it removed kool aid from the fabric. Hope so. Beautiful quilt top, by the way!

    The best stain remover I've found is called the Magic Wand:

    http://www.amazon.com/Dritz-20125-Cl...rds=magic+wand

    It looks like an oversized stick of chapstick and you rub it on the stain and then take a wet brush (I use an old toothbrush) and brush the spot. Then just throw it in the washing machine. If it's a bad stain, like grease, sometimes it takes more than one application, but it will work even if something has already gone through the dryer. Best ever.

    I used to find it at Hancock's or JoAnn's but it was discontinued in stores a couple of years ago. Now, I order it on Amazon when I can add it on to another order with free shipping.

    Oh quiltykiwi, I did not have this happen to me. I was just wondering what anyone else would do if it had happened to them. I try not to bring things that might hurt my quilts or the fabric into the sewing room. The thing is that the sewing room is also the computer room, and I like a drink now and then.

    I love your quilt! I have googled Pipe Dream Quilt pattern and not found it. If you are using a pattern, can you share what it is called, please. If you just created it on your own....well Wow!!!!

    Yes, it is a dye, and has been used as a safe method for children to tie-dye t-shirts. Keep it in the kitchen if you have to serve it; even iced tea is safer!
