I use Orvus a livestock wash. It's great for soaking stains out of old quilt tops or washing quilts. I use color catchers also, look how much this color catcher absorbed from a recent quilt soaking. The top turned out great too!

I've been working on two quilt tops - at once.
Sometimes it's easier if the fabrics are similar to work on two quilt tops at the same time. I used two inch strips of 1930's repro fabrics in both of these with very different results.

Crock-pot magic
I love my crockpot, especially because it adds flavors to leftovers. I cut up leftover meatloaf placed it in a ramekin, stirred together 1/2 package of gravy mix with a cup of water and poured over the top of the meatloaf. Leftover mashed potatoes, and black eyed peas went into two more seperate ramekins. I stacked all three and will cook on low for 4 -5 hours. The meatloaf will become salisbury steak and gravy. Supper will be ready, the house will smell great, and I can sew all day.
