    A product like this is excellent whenever a bit of fabric runs!

    Part of my dilemma is that I have months if not a year's worth of work left to do on this quilt. Everything I have read about stain removal recommends dealing with it as soon as possible. Yet washing it before I finish quilting seems like I will have a mess on my hands. I think I am talking myself into replacing the blocks.

    I would try spot removing the bleed first, then remove the blocks if that doesn't work. Grandma's Spot Remover is available at Joann's, and some local quilt stores, as is Synthrapol. You have nothing to lose and it might work. I'm sorry this happened to your quilt, and I hope you find a good solution for it.
