A quilt is not only a cozy bed cover: it is also a piece of art. The crafters that make our quilts pick top quality vivid fabrics and arrange them in an attractive work of art. Select from our stock of over two hundred handmade quilts for a quilt that best enhances your home design.

Although the pieces of fabric are stitched with each other by machine to ensure tighter stitching, all the quilting is done by hand. 100% cotton fabrics compose the top and bottom of the quilt. The batting sandwiched in between those two layers, however, is 100% polyester. This polyester batting guaranties both warmth and also exceptional washing outcomes.

You will find our quilts to be really large in length and width. As a matter of fact, almost all of our quilts are generous enough to eliminate the need for a dust ruffle or pillow shams. Just as bed heights are different, each quilt's overall size differs as well. You'll find we publish the quilt's dimensions with the calculated drop for you to compare to the sizing you need. Please do your research ahead of purchasing!

Are our quilts washable?

As a matter of fact, our quilts are indeed machine-washable! We advise the following guidelines for ideal handling results:

• Wash in a washing machine with cold water on gentle cycle.
• Use only mild laundry detergent, such as liquid Cheer for colors (No bleach or bleach alternatives. No Woolite or fabric softener.) For the initial washing, include 1/2 cup vinegar as well as 2 tbsps of salt along with the laundry soap. This home remedy stops hemorrhage as well as aids with establishing the colors in your quilt.
• Remove quilt immediately after the washer stops to lessen creases and also color-bleeding.
• Never ever put a quilt in the clothes dryer! Line completely dry on a breezy day.
• Quilts could be dry-cleaned at your own risk, but we absolutely recommend washing.
