I have had a blood stain on my bed quilt for a quite a while now. It's dried, but I'm sure there's still a way to get it out. Does anyone know any cheap and easy ways to get it out? And yes, unfortunately, my bed quilt is white. I hope somebody can still help me though!

I use a product called LA's Awesome cleaner. You can get it at Dollar General or even the Dollar Tree. It's very inexpensive & it works! I have got blood, gatorade, pet urine stains, grease, red clay & more out of my clothes & bedding. I have even used it in my carpet cleaner. Try it you'll be amazed at the cleaning power it has.
Do you let it soak or dab it on. I have an old quilt with old blood stains Im assuming its blood but I want to try and clean it
I would let it soak. You might want to treat it a few times to get the entire old stain out.
Good luck!
Use regular peroxide out of your bathroom cabinet. People tell you to use it, but not "how" to use it. Hope this helps. First and most important! Do NOT put item in washer or dryer. (Test for color safe first with peroxide.) For your white quilt. Fold a white towel until it is 8 or more layers thick. Put under stain. Soak stain with regular peroxide. Do not POUR on spot(s). Just dab on till it's wet. Wait and count to 20. Do not rub stain or it may get bigger. Dab and PUSH into the underneath towel.
This works very quick about 5 minutes and the stain disappeared!!!!
I have used ammonia, sudsing ammonia works best, for dried blood stains. It is usually sold for cleaning floors. I put it in a spray bottle for this use.
I've heard/read that hydrogen peroxide works well for this. I remember specifically a nurse commented that she & her co-workers used hydrogen peroxide to remove blood. And it probably wouldn't hurt to leave it in the sun to help the whitening process. Best of luck, I hope you get that stain out!
Personally, I would try Shout or Resolve to get the stain out. You can try this www.thriftyfun.com/
Soak that area in cold water, and use peroxide, scrubbing the fabric to work it through, then rinse in a sink under flowing cold water. It may take several attempts. Be sure to wash it in cold water, and check out the stain before putting it in the dryer.
Another vote for hydrogen peroxide (the 3% solution, not the higher volume hair color solution). Be sure to test in an inconspicuous spot first for color fastness!
I've used spit for small stains and soaked in salt water. But hydrogen peroxide is great too.
