Aida Cross
Posted in cross stitch on 02/19/2010 08:36 am by adminHow to keep DMC floss from bleeding while washing the aida cloth.?
I got a spot on a just finished cross stitch. It is done with black I am afraid it will bleed if I try to hand wash it. How can I keek it from doing this. Quick I need it done for a county fair entry.
Thanks for the help.
I had this happen to me once with black DMC, too. I tried washing it myself in cold water and ended up with a grey mess on my aida. I would take it to the cleaners first. They couldn't help me since I'd already washed it and set in the bleed. I now pretreat all my dark DMC threads(black, dark blues and reds) by soaking in cold water with vinegar and salt and drying them before I use them.
