WOW - congrats on a great find. If the fact that they smell is all that's wrong with them, washing them is a small price to pay. Great fabric, to say nothing of the price.

Good Luck with the mothball smell.
A lady gave me an entire bolt of
poly/cotton rouyal bluel and I
cannot get the smell out.

I have washed 2 times in baking soda
& vinegar, hung out over night on
the line & NO LUCK.

PLEASE tell me what works for you.

WOW, what a wonderful find. I think the moth ball smell would be better than mold, mildew or cigarette smoke. Should wash out.
