My grandma's old quilt beats any new throw blanket I've ever bought

I spent $50 on a 'vintage style' throw from Target and it looked worn out after two washes. But my grandma's quilt from the 1970s? It's been through three generations of kids and still keeps me warm without falling apart. Has anyone else found that older handmade stuff just lasts forever?

Man, that's the truth right there... my mom still uses a blanket her own grandmother made and it's held up better than anything I could buy now.

Miles54's grandma knew what she was doing - my mom's 80s afghan is still going and my supposedly fancy duvet gave up after three winters.
