I wish you were too and without the spill. A friend of mine was here with me. As we were cleaning up the wall and the carpet she said "So guess what I did today - went to visit and the cats climbed all over me so I am covered in cat hair and then I cleaned wine off the carpet and walls " LOL

It might work a little better if you soak the fabric. :XD:

That's one reason NO food OR drinks are allowed in my sewing room.

Someone suggested cold water. I was told long time ago that very hot water takes out fruit stains. It worked on a white tablecloth when my nephew spilt grape juice.

Eeek! Hope it comes out. Sorry about the "oops".

I suppose, though, if it doesn't come out, just soak the rest of the fabric in wine and tell people that's the color it's supposed to be! ;) he he

:lol:

Here is a link with some good instructions. Trick seems to be to "dilute" the wine a.s.a.p. & then use Oxygen based cleaner & hot water.

I'd read some place that white wine takes out the stain, and sure enough when my DD spilt her glass of red wine on our new green plush loveseat, I grabbed a bottle of white wine (what a waste!) & poured it on & we dabbed cloths on it for hours. In the morning no sign of a stain at all. But I imagine now that you've soaked your items, the stains will be very difficult to remove with anything.

Hydrogen peroxide lifts it out pretty well, even after soaking....

Thanks everyone. Soaking got the stain out of everything except the fat quarters. There is just one drap on each one - go figure that one out. I will try something else on them today and if I cannot get the stains out I can still work around them so all is not lost. Quilt top is perfect and so are the many yards of fabric.

I certainly will never walk into the sewing room again with any food or drink! Learned that lesson very well. I can still see that glass tipping over!!!!! Oh no!!!!!!!!!!!

I use BIZ to get red wine out of our Communion linens.
