Dear spiders,

I am faced with a perplexity on how to clean something, and I'm hoping our vast reservoir of cumulative knowledge might come to the rescue.

I have several quilts made by my great-grandmother, and from time to time use them on my bed, as they are wonderfully warm. Recently however, a new feline member of the family, for reasons unknown, felt the need to relieve herself on my bed. Fortunately I caught her at it before she could complete the process. While there was a modern washable blanket on top of the quilt, enough soaked through onto the quilt to soil it.

The quilt is made of calico (so it's cotton), and it's lined (insulated) with raw unwashed wool. So then, how does one clean this sort of soilage out of this type of quilt, other than carefully? Should I use something like Woolite? Will that work? I don't want to try anything yet for fear of doing something untoward to the wool. I was able to blot considerable excess urine with paper towels immediately after the adventure.
