that's what i meant. yours will last because the construction quality is good and the raw materials are good quality and costly. MOST of the others are poor quality and cheap. they're made by people who don't care what they're doing. you can't expect them to last so to complain when they fall apart is foolish. if you want something for real use, you're better off buying a machine-made quilt that has no pretensions or spending more on a better made fake. there are some that last a long time.
