Bought an 24 X 36 Dritz at Joann's last yr. No smell.

Be aware of Gift Bags too!

Couple yrs. ago bought large gift bags at Dollar Store for Christmas quilts made for my granddaughters. Opened the closet door that had the bagged quilts in them, and just about passed out from the smell. Just overnight, it took me a week to air out those quilts. Think they must have had some type of painted coating on the bags. Made in China. Just be aware, if you have anything gifted in this type of bags! :thumbdown:
