How much down coming thru your quilt material is considered normal?
How much down coming thru your quilt material is considered normal?
We have 2 MAMW TQ and 2 UGQ UQ, for about 6 months now. I've never seen any down escaping them.
Any pictures? How ild is your quilt, newer materials have really made this a non issue for the most part.Originally Posted by SoaknWet
My store bought down quilts all have some leakage. Not a lot but defiantly a few escapees. My quilts are not old and the are from HF vendors.
Really images would be useful, for us it is just the odd escapee, our quilts are down evidently from time to time a bit of feather stayed with the down and that is what caused the escape.
Quilt is only 2 months old if that. Lately if I spot it in time I'll just pinch from the other side and pull back in. I just wondered if it was normal with today's newer material. As a kid I remember it coming out of our pillows and clothes.
I've got a secondhand Lynx UQ and a Costco throw DIY quilt that are shedding more than some of my other items. I find maybe a half dozen poking out at the seams on the Lynx and about half that on the Cosco. I try to just ignore them but it's like trying not to pick a scab. I was having the same concern but what I've pulled out are much more feather-like than the nice fluffy down cluster. I figure these are just the sneaky feathers that made it through the sorting process working their way out of the items.
Pretty much all down will have some amount of quills in it. Those quills will poke through the fabric, especially light weight fabric, pretty much regardless of what you do.
It's not a lot it just caught me off guard.its no big deal, guess I thought things would improve with all this high technology. As long as it's not like the stuff 60 years ago!
