The t-shirt got pale, blotchy spots of blue dye on it.

At the grocery store there is a solution called Rit. Look in the laundry supply aisle. There are all sorts of combinations to get different things out of clothes. Maybe this can help.

Try adding an oxy-clean type product to water and soak for 15 minutes. I add this stuff to my laudry, except when using bleach, to prevent things like this from happening. It works! It also prevents food spots from becoming stains. You may or may not be able to get the dye out of a tan colored shirt. This happened to me 3 weeks ago. To no avail, it will not come out. I tried every thing. It fadded a little. (I ran out of oxy clean and my daughter stuck the shirt in with black jeans.)

Has it been dried? If not you are in luck...! Soak in cold water while you boil some water inside a kettle. After water boils, get the t-shirt out of the cold and rinse with hot water. This will get the dye off of it.
This is possible because the dye is not yet permanent.

Rit makes a color (dye) remover product. I have used this to get pink out of white shirts & socks. It really works.

If it is a white T-shirt, then bleach it. If not, then you are out of luck.
