If I am storing projects in ziplock bags will it hurt anything to put a dryer sheet in?

I've put in a "used" sheet was afraid a new one is to oily/greasy and may leave residue on material. I put one or two "used" in when I get a quilt top from a smoker and puff up bag and twist tie before I LA it!!

Don't know why you would need it but...good idea. I have some in those 1 gallon and bigger ones that are new but I am so hooked on the project boxes from JOann's too. The only way I would not use them if it was a project for someone else as many have allergies to different smells. I do this when I get things in the mail from smokers. LOL Works every time. That and fabreeze spray. I will have to watch and see how others feel. Thanks for the great post, fella.:):):)

Hubby and I smoke and I cook with onions and garlic a lot but never thought about it stinking up the quilting since it's in a separate room and we only do these things in the kitchen. If it's in a different room I don't see a problem but I'm sure if you use a used one it would be fine but I'd worry a bit about a fresh one. I prewash all my fabric and zip lock them, they stay fresh for years!!
