It could be a safety issue. I was researching this earlier and I stumbled across a similar conversation on another site about it. One of the factors in that conversation was an experience someone had with invisible thread coming loose (but not undone) on a quilt, and a little finger was tangled and the circulation cut off. I can absolutely see this happening; I have a store-bought comforter and it does have loose loops of invisible thread all over it.

However. These are all anecdotal, so as I said, you might want to check with your particular charity about whether you can use invisible thread, and if not, what their concerns are. They are the only ones who can tell you for sure.
