I had several of my tubs of fabric stored in our basement and the basement flooded. Some of the fabric became wet inside the tubs and I didn't realize it. Now some of it is molded and mildewed. Any suggestions for salvaging it. Thanks!

:cry: I feel your sadness. About the only thing you can do is send it all through the wash machine and see if it comes clean. Maybe you might have to cut out the mold/mildew part that did not come out in the wash. :cry:
