Question about the cedar boxes on Amazon...is it safe to store quilts with cedar? I've heard that the oils in the wood can seep out and into the quilt ruining them. Yes, I know that hope chests (wedding chests) are typically lined with cedar and used to store linens, etc., but I worry about putting quilts in them. Am I wrong? Hopefully, I am, as I have a couple of cedar chests but haven't used them for storing quilts, just woolen sweaters and blankets.
