Let's stick with the question folks. We already know the controversy and that was not the subject. Gets really old.
two
excellent points.
i give away 99% of the quilts i make and have sold a few. i have no idea how long any of those have lasted or will last. (i always forget to attach those electronic tracking tags. :lol: ) i DO know that will depend on how well they are cared for.
the two quilts i've kept for myself were both made entirely from walmart fabrics. one faded a bit after a few years. since it now looks like an antique, i don't mind the fade. it has enhanced the look of that particular quilt. the other is used every day and has been washed countless times. it looks exactly like it did the day i finished it.
i hope that those who do not like walmart fabrics will just pass on this topic without comment.
