Also dark colors can be "set" by adding vinegar to the wash. There is also
a wonderful product that will 'soak up' excess dye from commerically
purchased fabric called Shout Color Catcher. You just throw one or two in
the wash with the fabric. Sigh... wish I had found it sooner...

and remember to wash the fabric before cutting and stitching
together--otherwise the colors will bleed all over each other, particularly
the red. (One trick I've heard is to put a handful of salt in the water
when you wash the red the first time....that will slow down but not halt the
bleeding)
