Frequently Asked Questions

Are your quilts machine washable?

Yes. All Jancy’s Fancies quilts are machine washable using cold water on a gentle cycle with mild detergent.

For Signature Heirloom Quilts, we recommend laying flat or hanging to air dry to help preserve scalloped edges, embroidery, and decorative finishes.

What is the difference between Signature Heirloom and Classic quilts?
