The best and only way is to pour 3% hydrogen peroxide directly on the stain and then watch it disappear like magic. Test an inconspicuous spot first to make sure it doesn't bleach out the fabric.
This will work on all fabric types, cottons and synthetics and also on carpets and mattresses. Try it, it really does work.

Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide is both a frugal and effective method for blood stain removal. At less than $1 per bottle, you can use the entire bottle and still be ahead in most cases. To use it, simply pour a small amount of hydrogen peroxide on the blood stain. It works best on fresh blood stains (and will immediately attack them), but will also work on older blood stains as long as the item has not been dried in a clothing dryer. Fresh blood stains will often be gone with one to two applications of hydrogen peroxide, while older stains usually take more. What will happen is that the hydrogen peroxide will come into contact with the blood and start bubbling. Let it set for a few seconds and you will have what can only be described as a white foam substance. Take an old towel and remove the white foam substance. Pat dry. Repeat if necessary. This is what I use for landry, furniture and/or mattresses. I've never once had hydrogen peroxide change the color on anything, but test in a hidden area first just in case.

Fresh blood stains can usually be removed by a thorough laundering in cold water. If any stain remains, soak it in a solution of 1 quart warm water, 1/2 teaspoon dishwashing or liquid laundry detergent, and 1 tablespoon ammonia for 15 minutes. Tamp (the method of bringing a brush down with light strokes on stained durable fabrics and materials) or scrape (the method of using a scraping tool to gently lift off excess solid or caked-on stains), blotting occasionally with an absorbent pad. Continue as long as any stain is being removed. Rinse well with water, making sure to remove all traces of the ammonia. Then dry or launder.

Add some plain old regular salt to cold water and let it soak a bit before laundering it in cold water.
