Brand new t shirt and I drop peach juice on the front. Tried everything to get the stain out. The only answer embroider over the stain and then add a little butterfly to cover another stain. I am quite pleased with the result.

My kind of save!!! I have a shirt in my laundry room headed for a second wash as the first did not remove (?) stain. Next step will be to embroider on it. What else can we do? If an item has a tear, them it is in line for an applique, right? Kay

Thank you so much Mary.

Looks great. Did you try Oxiclean? Another good stain remover is soft scrub. Just be sure to wash item as soon as you finish removing stain.

Thank you. We have many stain removers here in S. Africa but I have never heard of of the ones you mention

Good save. Just for another time - my Mother's maid would take our grape juice stained clothes inside out over a bowl in the sink and pour boiling hot water directly over the stain. She said the boiling water forced the fruit juice out of the fabric. Harder to force it all the way through the fabric completely, which is why you turn it stain side down!

When I was looking on the Internet on ways to remove stains, I actually saw what you have suggested. I will keep it in mind.

I'd say it was good the you spilled on your shirt. It looks so cute now.
