I just recently visited a Cracker Barrel while visiting my daughter in Binghamton. Their quilts are really beautiful!! I, too, was surprised to find they were 'made in China'. We are so used to low-quality items being massed produced coming from there, but these quilts are quite the opposite. They were beautifully detailed. I enjoyed looking but I get much more enjoyment making my own, so a purchase will not be in my future.

I found a small quilted pillow cover in a thrift store - which appears to have been hand quilted.
It had a price tag stapled to the quilt which concealed the label. It too was made in China. I plan to use it
on the back of my chair. It is made up of Grandmother's Fans and that is the sole reason I paid $1. for it.
