Ooops!

Remember this skirt? I love it! I wear it often, although I'm not really a red person. I had pre-washed the fabric prior to cutting and the red bled a little into the white. It really wasn't noticeable, but it bothered me. So, today I plunged it into a sink full of luke-warm water and some dye remover product. All would have been fine, if I hadn't gotten side-tracked with cleaning up the yard and then holding lumber so somebody (coughJBcough) could build the extension for our deck. Well, when I finally made it back into the house, I about hyperventilated. My skirt was a light orange! Ooops. There were still some spots of red. So I rinsed it, and did it again. Trying to get rid of all the red. Then I rinsed it again, threw it in the washer and dryer. It is now a very bold printed orangish brown. The white however, is really bright white! So, I think I'll be pulling Kashi's card from my wallet to see if I can get another red length of this fabric and trying again. Anyone know of a good way to keep red from bleeding. In case you care - this is how my skirt looks now:
