    It happens to the best of us.. and you couldn't be an idiot if you tried. Not even watching Honey Boo Boo would do that to you!
    I hate to imagine how dumb I would be if I watched that stuff lol.....

    Luckily, no bleach spots on the front so I am thrilled about that, and I now check, double check and recheck the washer.

    Hi! just wanted to check in and see how you are doing today. Sometimes after we get over the shock, and have some time for things to settle in, we can relax.... I was thinking about you and wanted to show some support.

    I did think of a string of balloons to applique over random marks, but they come very close to the binding. So maybe I'll just keep quiet and commiserate. I wish you luck - keep us informed. Annie

    I decided to use the rit dye and a small paintbrush and dot the color on in the bleached spots. i diluted the dye until I got a color that was a very close match. I just put it in the wash again. I'll see in a bit how it turned out, but it looked pretty good (at least better than it did). I'll post pictures when done to see if it passes M*forum inspections lol.
