100% cotton duvet cover.

BIG tea stain. Dried in. For a couple of weeks Blush

Machine didn't wash out.

What do you suggest? Would like to avoid the bleach route...

Try working in some glycerine, leave 20 mins or so then wash with hand-soap.
Pouring boiling water through cotton should be safe enough too.

I forgot I'd posted this Blush

I tried Vanish, then sprayed it with Bathroom Mould and Mildew remover, of course it contains bleach. So that worked Grin (duvet cover is white)
