    As some of you may know, we had a fire in our home on June 1st. There was aquite a lot of smoke and related damage. Many of my quilts were downstairs and while not burned in any way did have that terrible smell. A professional company took all of them and cleaned them. They came back while I was away and I must say they are in perfect shape and smell lovely....I was concerned but no more.

    I'm so glad they're back and sweet smelling. We had a house fire several years ago - no damage but awful smoke smell. I was afraid we'd never get the smell out, but those professional cleaners do a great job.
