    It sounds as though there are a lot of quilters out there that rely on starch.
    I read somewhere that silverfish (those little bugs you find in the cellar) love starch. So, fabric or finished quilts that have been starched (and not laundered afterward) should not be stored in a basement or similar storage facility.
    Wouldn't you hate to find one of your works of art ruined by those little guys?
