coverlet..

Saturday, February 14th, 2009

So my new CB2 coverlet came in the mail yesterday and with very cool packaging I might add! So when I got home from work - the first thing I did was throw it in the washer - but there was one problem? It says line dry - huh. I live in an apartment with no line to dry. Do most people have a clothesline? How do you line dry a quilt with no line?

Do you think it will ruin if I put it in the dryer?

I went ahead and washed it and put it on air fluff in the dryer for 30 minutes.  It was still really wet - so I put it on low heat in the dryer for another 20 minutes - then I got it out and draped part of it over the back of my sofa to create a “tent.”  How do you do these things? Do you think I can just dry it?

Today I ordered this gray Matelasse coverlet from cb2.com. This is the first time that I have ever ordered from cb2.com, but cb2 is a division of Crate & Barrel - so I have no worries about the quality… The coverlet has excellent reviews.

I am going to use this coverlet on top of my lovely while duvet, the hotel-ish duvet cover that Cody bought me for my bday. I will use white sheets, bed skirt, and shams. -I would love to have some gray panels for my windows too. I think it will be awesome. I ‘ll take some pictures when I get it.
