I don't know either.
It is weird.
I've heard really derogatory things said about "Walmart fabric" but I have some really simple (cut in long strips) quilts I made for my kids and tied together with that dreaded "walmart fabric" that have lasted over 15-20 years--made for boys. But the other day I was told that the quilt I made for my 23 y/o nephew and given to him about 7-8 years ago when I was first starting to really make quilts is starting to fall apart and look really worn. I used really nice Robert Kauffman and other neat baseball fabrics purchased on line (quilt shop quality).
So, "who knows"? But I know that I don't appreciate the nasty, derogative comments by anyone about that poor quality "Walmart fabric".
(I'm referring to mostly the Springs or VIP fabrics that they commonly sell.)
