What a great find. It must have taken forever to wash and iron all that fabric. WhenI came across musty fabric, I washed it with 1/4 cup ammonia and it only took 1 wash and dry cycle. If you ever find another treasure like you have now maybe you could save yourself some work and use ammonia instead. Have fun with all that beautiful fabric

This was very, very musty...very strong mildew smell. Tons of fabric...so far I'm on my 10th load...2 more to go.
