Earth Friendly, no phosphates and gentle enough for all fine washables

Quilt Wash was specifically and carefully developed to gently clean your treasured quilts. It may also be used to clean fine washables, delicate fabrics and lingerie. Quilt Wash is "earth friendly", contains no phosphates, no bleach and is biodegradable.

Quilt Wash is easy-to-use because it comes with its own teaspoon so you get the perfect wash every time. The spoon has a convenient hole so you can hang it in your laundry room for easy access. We recommend that you consult a professional before you wash your antique heirloom quilts.

Directions:

Place a teaspoonful of Quilt Wash under the water flow as it enters the washing machine. Cool or tepid water is recommended. When the basin is full, gently submerge your quilt under the water, close the lid and let the machine run through its most gentle cycle. For fine washables be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions

One double walled container of our Quilt Wash is enough product for 48 washes!
