Yes, I have loads of money and time to make something for you to drag around the house!!!
Whats wrong is everything comes from overseas most likely from cheap sweatshop type labor and people don't understand that is what they are buying when they buy a 50 dollar quilt. How much do they think the person in china got paid to make it, probably not much and those quilts always fall apart quicker as well. People seriously need to truly understand what they are buying. If it was made here in America I guarantee it wouldn't cost 50dollars
