you do know that Amish have used Hmong people from Vietnam to do their quilts for years right?

I checked the label on the back of the quilted pillow case. and followed it to this web page.
Maybe we should all read some of what it says. Saying something is hand made is not necessarily going to mean it was made in USA.

But...you could always tell they were from China because try as they may, the eyes were always slanted a bit! My mom used to collect antique dolls and we could spot one from China immediately!

Thank you for the link. It has some very interesting information on it. I knew this was going on but didn't think they were being sold by QVC and other such stores. I have 2 of them and have enjoyed them but now that I make my own quilts they will probably go in the closet.

Amen! A friend of mine (non quilter) bought a "handmade" quilt from China and it fell apart after 2 washings!
