I made a quilt when my son was little out of shirt factory remnants. They all looked the same but the cotton? wore out faster than ones that felt like they were maybe part polyester. I try not to use fabrics that look or feel flimsy but these all had what I thought were the same weight and content. Just do the best you can, use the best you can afford and when a well loved quilt wears out....you get a chance to make another quilt!
