Another thought to add, a friend of mine used to work at a sewing factory making mass productions of clothing. She began to itch,raised areas on skin,ect. The doctor determined it was a form of mites that love fabric.I've kept that in mind ever since,and wash all new clothes,sheets,ect . as soon as I got home shopping.I try to wash all my fabric that goes into my stash as soon as I get home from fabric store, but tend to be too lazy majority of the time.LOL! I am probably sitting as I am typing this in mite city right now.LOL! yep computer is in my quilting room.Oh geesh, wish I hadn't thought of that..

.meant to add that this all fabric, not only new.
