I just read about the cost of cotton going up and what the manufacturers are planning to do to compensate. First, the wholesale price has almost doubled. They don't say why. They are talking about making the fabric thinner. That has been mentioned on the board by several of you. Next, they are thinking about adding polyester to cotton in a 60/40 combo.
I can't imagine quilt material with poly. You can't use it for any donated children's quilts because of the fire hazard. We need to keep an eye on this topic.
