Let's talk bedding

Does anyone use a quilt instead of a comforter or duvet?  It seems kinda "grandma-ish", but I found one that I like.  Smile

Re: Let's talk bedding

  • Its cute for a quilt, but I'm not really a quilt kind of girl, personally.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I don't.  However, I seem to recall reading that quilts are coming back into style.

    I think the one that you posted looks really nice, actually!  Definitely not grandma-ish.

  • DH would love it if we had a quilt instead of a comforter. I can't find something I like though.
  • If I could find a quilt I liked, I'd buy one.  Not Grandma-ish.

  • I LOVE quilts! We have 2, and one for the spare bedroom that I rotate.  One of which came from Pottery Barn Kids back in the day, but I love it :)

    I would buy that quilt in a heartbeat, I love it!

  • I have a wedding quilt that my grandmother made us as a wedding gift (it's a wedding ring style in quilting language) but we dont use it that much. I am afraid something will get on it.

  • I love the quilt you posted. (I have never seen a grandma make a quilt that looks that cute!)  And I think quilts work well in a more modern room -such as in teh picture.  Provides a good balance to the crafty look.
  • Ok now I have to know where this quilt is, I have been looking for a new one for the spare bedroom :)

    Sweet! Thanks.  I'm sure DH will hate and veto it, but its worth suggesting haha.

    Suprisingly, my H liked it.  Haha. 

  • I like it and I like quilts. :-)  We have one my Aunt made us for our wedding, and she specifically told us "Now you better not be afraid to use it and keep it stored away!"  We've used it on our bed in the summer, but I think I'd like to incorporate it into our spare bedroom if I ever get around to any kind of decorating in there.

    Yes

    I hear ya.  Empty, non-decorated rooms in my house there will always be!  (I just watched Star Wars, so I have Yoda on my mind.)

    Ha!  This cracked me up.  Ah, Yoda.

    It was actually a semi-NY resolution to put more effort into decorating our home.  Our main floor is somewhat decorated, but our upstairs is pretty damn bare.
