    i found some really wonderful fabrics that were bamboo/cotton blends, they made beautiful table runners, and i do believe made it into a quilt or two. they washed up nice were very soft, the colors are vibrant ... i liked them.

    It did not "feel" as soft as it did originally did.

    Have not purchased any of the bamboo/cottons yet.
