Bleeding
I bought a BUNCH of flannels at JoAnn's sale yesterday. I've already washed most of it and they are all bleeding! Some of them have already gone through three or more washes and rinses!
Does anyone know if JoAnn's takes them back if they can't be used?
Any hope/suggestions (for the fabric, not JoAnn's)?
Thanks!

I would most certainly take them back. I believe they require that the fabric has not been cut and if you have your receipt you should get your money back. Curious was this the Snuggle flannel or Quilters Quality flannel?

I just don't trust non LQS fabrics.... especially flannels. So many places put cheaper inferior items for sale for those 'super sales'. The stores make more profit than their regular stuff but you get way less quality. Sorry you had this experience..... yes, try to take it back.

The Quilters flannel did not bleed. The Snuggle did.

You can try to take it back - make sure you have the receipt with you.
I consider fabric 'defective' if it keeps releasing color.
On the positive side - aren't you relieved that you found out that this fabric has issues BEFORE you cut and sewed it?
