Marilyn, sometimes the quilting threads do break after lots of use and washing, and that's all right. Many years ago, I had a favorite pair of cotton slacks in a silky Pima-type cotton. They were so comfortable to wear. After a couple of years, though, the polyester thread that they had been made with sawed through the fabric along the seams. Since it was the fabric of the pants that was sawed through, there was no way of repairing the damage. This is when I started using all-cotton thread in my quilts. Be glad that you can replace the quilting, and that the fabric of the quilt is undamaged.
