Should I colour fast these ?

I made these for my sister's 80th Birthday in her favourite colour. I'm not sure if the red colour will run into the white. Should I treat them before gifting them to her. If so, how do I do that. They are crochet with Bendigo Woolen Mills 8ply cotton.
There is a set of 6 place mats, 6 coasters, 3 tea towels & a pair of writs warmers/fingerless gloves.

Thanks so much for any advice and help.
Cheers
SallyB

yes, they will run. They have colorfast sheets by tide that works very well. These sheets go into the washer and I just leave it when I put them in the dryer as well.

I also would do the water and vinegar as well. It is 2 parts water and 1 part vinegar.
