Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I would love to make things and sell them but I am afraid that the smoke smell would linger. I would pre-wash my fabric and then wash again when finished and put into a large zip lock bag. I've heard storing things in plastic bags isn't a good thing to do either. Should I just give up on my ideas and only do things for myself?
I'm not fond of using Febreze or of using dryer sheets to try to mask another odor.
I think we do become 'unaware' of the scents that we are constantly exposed to - good, bad, and/or indifferent.
Also, unaware of what fragrances we produce!

.I smoke. I sell. I always wash and iron any( Smallish, totes, wall hangings etc.) item I'm selling after taking out from dryer just before packaging, (I don't iron quilts though) package and mail/deliver the same day. Nobody has complained yet, my sister's family are my best testers: they all absolutely hate cigarette smell but adore my products. Washing takes the stink out.
