Bleeding Madras is fabric made by weaving together yarns of different colors together, to form a kind of madras or plaid fabric, wherein the dyes used to color the yarns, are all vegetable dyes. Hence, the finished fabric , when washed, lets the colors run or "bleed", giving the fabric almost a new color with every wash.This property of the fabric is actually a desirable property, and some would buy madras fabric only if it bleeds, and would not consider regular color-fast madras plaid fabric. This is because bleeding madras is considered a novelty item, and a vintage heirloom item.Bleeding madras is mostly woven on traditional handlooms, and is considered an art form.Today's madras fabric and clothing is the modern version of madras. These are color-fast yarns of which the fabric is made, and hence no bleeding of colors takes place.
