different strokes, but i would dream of sending a quilt to a dry cleaners....first of all, don't kid yourself...if it is labeled or appears to be all cotton, they wash them.... (dry cleaners in the family) ... and if they don't, you have some terrible chemicals inside a layered item that will not come out easily... if your are happy with the results you get, great....but i wouldn't do it...
