Quilt cleaning help????
I was given a quilt from a friend that her mother had been working on and took sick. There was pins in it and of course there are now rust spots, I also found small little blood spots where she must of pricked her finger with the needle as it is all done by hand. I was going to donate it, but not sure if I can get those out and if I should wash it prior if I do get those spots out. Any help would be greatly appreciated on how to get the stains out without damaging this old quilt. Thanks!

Years ago RIT used to make a fabric rust remover but i am not sure if they still do. It would be found in the same section where RIT dye and other RIT laundry products are.
I have also used Whink rust stain remover. I think that one is found in the automotive section of stores. It works on getting rusty tool stains out of car upholstery and carpeting. I believe it works on any colored fabric, Just test it first!

There is a product by a company called Carbona called stain devils and it is specifically for rust and perspiration stains. It is a small bottle and I think I bought it at a grocery store. Website www.carbona.com

I've used Whink for rust stains successfully. I'm pretty sure I didn't get it in the automotive section - probably somewhere in laundry isle.
