I make a quilt for mt DD for a wedding present. It was made with Joann fabric and I had it quilted by a friend and I love this quilt, it was a 2 color log cabin and she quilted roses in it. They loved it and was on their bed every day. I told them when it needed washing I would do it. I wash it and layed it outside to dry when I could and in the basement in the winter over a few lines I have down there.
Well..........the top got bally and was terrible!! This turnd me off of Joanns fabric. I figure I would use the best I can for speical quilts. All the money and time to make a beautiful quilt like that and it got bally!
