Smoke smell in quilts- help please!
#63
The Home Depot in my area sells stuff called "Odoban", it works really well to get odors out, but read the label about use. You would probably not have to use but a capful in a full washing machine load. Hope this helps.

I received some fabric stash from a smoker and thought all was lost after I washed it and still smelled smoke...BUT then I remembered some advice from my mom and washed it again with vinegar (I used about 2 cups) in the wash cycle and rinsed twice....smoke smell gone!!!
