I inherited some fabric, but it smells like moth balls is there any way to get the smell off the fabric?

If the garment is washable, add baking soda to the wash cycle. At the rinse cycle, add 2 cups white vinegar and allow to rotate several times to distribute the vinegar throughout, then stop and allow to soak for 2 or more hours. Run through a plain water rinse. Dry on the "fluff," or "air" setting with no heat (to maximize air exposure) and add a fabric softener sheet or two.

I got a bunch of stinky but good fabric from a friend and just hung it outside in a shady spot for a few days. Since it was summer in Florida they got rained on too, but I think that just helped them smell even fresher.
