Judy,

You missed a golden opportunity to plug Kiss Off, which gets stains out
really well. If you catch the paint while it's still even a bit moist,
you will get nearly all of it out. I have my students get as much out
as possible with water and Kiss Off, then rub a bit more of it on the
spot, and get it laundered that evening if possible. It will even
minimize India ink stains if you catch them fresh.
