It's true. Dryer sheets have chemicals, perfume and undisclosed ingredients that would best be left off our quilts, especially stored ones. I've done the dryer screen test - running water over it. If the water pools up and won't run through its because the chemical buildup is preventing proper air/water flow. Detergent and a scrub brush will remedy the situation but think what it does to our fabrics. I'd definitely refrain from placing fabric sheets directly on or between quilt folds.

I found the link (below) that actually lists the carcinogenic related chemicals in dryer sheets. Plus it offers a safer alternative but I cannot vouch for it since its new to me. Perhaps other members here have used the Static Eliminator?
