    I'm afraid to use water on it right now, even though I can reach under it. She had a block that had a brown spot on it and she soaked it in oxyclean then washed it by hand. The spot came out, but the green thread in the flower stem bled. I will need to use a couple of color catchers when I wash it.

    OK, I "took the bull by the horns" and used a mixture of detergent and Oxyclean and dabbed it on with a Q-tip, rubbing it in. I just let it dry and it was still there, but faintly. So, I did it again. It is now drying the second time. If it is gone this time, I'll use a wet washcloth and rinse it best I can and let it dry again. So far no color run, but it will definitely need a couple of color catchers. I'm beginning to feel immensly better! The "horror" is beginning to fade!
