B.D.
I bought a beautiful new bedspread that was cream with red flowers and the lady that sold it to me told me to wash it in cold water with a cup of salt. She said that this would set the color and from then on I could wash it and it would not bleed. I did that and it has never bled. I did dilute the salt in a little warm water before I added it to the cold. but you could hand wash in salt water and see what happens.
