I agree with this statement. My Mother has purchased these quilts for herself and as gifts. All before I started quilting 10 years ago. They all looked nice for quite a while even after washing. Now EVERY single one of them is falling apart. They are coming unraveled at the seams. One was a gift for my Father who has passed away. It is really in bad shape. She wanted me to repair it for her since it was sentimental. I couldn't do it. Too far damaged. I won't be buying one any time soon.
