                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Quaker Fabric
Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of January 1, 2000 and
January 2, 1999, and the related statements of income, changes in stockholders'
equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 1,
2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Quaker Fabric
Corporation and subsidiaries as of January 1, 2000 and January 2, 1999, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended January 1, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.
