HELP!!! SMELLY FABRIC!
#72
Take the jelly rolls apart, and put them in a plastic bag or other sealed container-with several sheets of crumpled newspaper-I would wrap the roll/strips in tissue first so that none of the ink from the paper transfers to the fabric. Let sit about a week or 10 days.

2 thoughts come to mind.......put them in sealed containers with Damp Rid or unwind them and soak in the sink in water and white vinegar. Rinse, repeat, rinse, hang to dry. If they still have the odor, keep doing the vinegar soak til it's gone. Unfortunately, the only way you'll know is when they are dry.
AND....be sure to put this in the ebay seller's feedback!

Sometimes airing the fabric will help, but I have stopped buying fabric on ebay for that very reason! I got some that was horrible! Had to toss it out! It smelled like very old musty smoke! Ugggghhhhh! Fabreze is good for freshening fabrics and I have also put Downey dryer sheets wrapped in a paper towel in with fabric that I'm storing. Keeps it fresh smelling.
