I understand polyester would make a good quilt. I chose black polyester broadcloth(?) for sashing a child's quilt because I wanted to reduce the chances of fading. It was a pain. It would shrink when you pressed it, so it was really hard to get everything to line up. I had to make the sashing twice on several blocks. I swore I'd never use polyester again in a quilt. I would donate it for someone else to make. I'll check with Project Linus to see if it's something they can use.
