Hi Jeanne, I've heard so many people say that they use Orvus quilt soap all the time and they like it but I never heard them say it takes away the yellowing. Women in my friends quilting circle said when they purchase old quilts from auctions they used Oxiclean to clean them with. They actually let the quilt soak in a tub or basin big enough for the quilt and water and oxiclean for a day, upwards of three days and they say the yellowing is all gone and the quilt is beautiful! Hope this helps!
the I second the motion on Amy's suggestion. To me, OxiClean is a fantastic product that I use in all my laundry (i.e., whites, light colors and even black clothing). I use regular detergent and a scoop of OxiClean in every load of laundry. Additionally, I've used it on old lace, linen type, tablecloths and bedding. It helps to remove stains on bedding for my three dogs. I save an enormous amount of $ by purchasing an 11 lb box at Costco for $18. I would suggest that you use concentrated amounts of OxiClean (2 or 3 scoops) along with detergent. Furthermore, fill up the washing machine with Oxi and detergent and let it mix up a bit before adding the quilt. My dear friend has an HE machine, so she put the OxiClean powder inside the machine and adds the detergent to the dispenser container. Good Luck with this challenge :-)~
p.s.: let the stained item soak for a day or two :-)~
