No, this one is NOT a commercial quilt. By sheer coincidence, we were out in Labelle today, and went into the Goodwill out there. THey had a rack of "quilts", and there on the end, was one shaped like this, with hideous red flowers, all the same flower. The material was thin, not even a third the weight of mine. It had a tag on it, Better Homes and Gardens, made in China.

NOT THE SAME QUILT. I could have bought all the floss left over from doing this quilt, but since anything I would have done would only spoil her work, I passed. This quilt is heavy, and I am sure will be quite comfy too.

Oh, and looking at that quilt? They sewed thru the red flowers with white thread. Great job, lol. Mine is also nicely quilted. I used that rack of 'quilts' to educate my dh about the difference, too. He got it as soon as he touched them.
