Reading all the comments have made me confused if I want to buy this or not? I want one but one not made in China. Are these still being partially made in China or are they still being made in Winona? I have family in Winona and want to support local.

GrayCloudThis particular drop is for the Massdrop x EE collaboration quilt, made in China. Massdrop still sells the Winona-made EE quilts from time to time. For example, at the end of December they sold some EE Enigmas. So just wait for a different drop, or you can always buy direct from EE. Hope this helps :-)

GrayCloudThese quilts are made in china. To get one made in Winona you'll have to buy direct from EE or wait for a regular drop of their quilts. Either way, you're still supporting local EE is going to make a small profit from every single quilt you buy here, and that money will all go towards the staff in Winona (that's a difference between a small, privately owned company and larger, publicly owned one).
The reason we had to move manufacturing of our quilts overseas was simply because EE couldn't hire enough people to make quilts locally. EE pays well and has a great, fun work environment with some nice perks and good training, so if you know anyone looking for work there . . .

DannyMilksThank you for your reply. I will reach out to some of my friends and see if they are looking for work or know someone. In the mean time I’m going to hold out for an enigma as that is the one I really want.
Thank you for your fast reply!
