I have had red embroidery floss bleed out in the dryer. I was devistated. There were several shades of red in this quilt. Only the darkest shade bled. I had no idea that that could happen in the dryer. As for the color catcher sheets, there was a little bit of bleed. You really had to look for it. I would use them just to be safe

That’s an idea I’ll have to try. Thanks, Kelley!

Thanks for these tips. I put small pieces of fabric into a net lingerie bag meant for washing stockings and other delicates in the washing machine. That helps keep little pieces from fraying and getting lost in the washer.
