The bedspread is a perfect complement to bed in spring, summer and fall. We are going to explain the characteristics of the bed covers and what you should take into account to choose the best bedspread for you.
What size should you choose for your bed.
Quilt manufacturers are increasingly original in their designs, but the measurements are usually quite standard. We give you some little tips to choose the size of your bed cover.
The measurement standards of the beds are 90, 105, 135/140, 150/160, 180 and 200. Here we always talk about centimeters of bed width, then we have the length that is usually 180, 190 and the most standard right now 200cm long. Example of a 180cm measurement could be our 180 bed duvet.
We must also take into account the thickness of the mattress and the height of the base where we put the mattress (mattress). Counting from the floor to the top of the mattress, we should not normally be more than 50cm.
In this way, our bedspread will always be perfect for us, since most manufacturers offer us 80cm to 100cm more fabric for falls (+/- 45cm on each side of the bed). Thus, in a bedspread for a 135 bed, the normal size of the bedspread will be: 230 / 240cm wide by 270cm long.
What type of quilt to choose according to the use you are going to give it.
The use of the quilt is what will determine what type of fabric we will need.
A. Exclusive decorative use: In rooms without much use, we will focus above all on the design regardless of the fabric or clothing.
These bedspreads are not functional and must be removed to sleep as they usually have a silky and slippery feel and do not stay in position overnight. Here we can find silks, embroidery and even rhinestones on the bedspread that offer a luxurious and exclusively decorative appearance. I’m sorry but at casaytextil.com you won’t find anything like that. Our goal is to sell quilts that you can use every day without problems, but since we know that there are people for everything, we cannot forget about these types of quilts.
B. Functional Decorative Use: In this section we find the piqué bedspread, the summer bedspreads and the boutí bedspreads. If what we want is to decorate our main bed, that of every day, we will look for dense fabrics, with short hems (separation between threads) since this type of weaving offers us a much greater resistance to rubbing. It seems incredible but, especially in the part of the bed where we sit, before going to bed, there is wear due to friction that can become a problem, if we do not choose the right fabric. All the bedspreads that we offer meet the expectations of a functional decorative use quilt.
C. Children’s and Youth Bedspreads: In the children’s and youth bedspreads we will look for colors that combine with the furniture and the curtains, trying to make the room have a chromatic harmony. Oranges, blues, fuchsias, yellows, purples, reds and greens.
These colors are the ones that we will find the most in our children’s and youth bedspreads, so it will be easier for us to combine with the rest of the room. We especially recommend blends with synthetic fibers, such as polyester, so that the color fastness to washing is as high as possible. With these mixtures of materials, we will avoid the iron how little we like for such large items.
In our children’s and youth quilts, the making is very simple and resistant, you will see that in most articles a colored edging is added around the quilt to reinforce those areas and avoid the white color and its ease of getting dirty. These bedspreads are very practical since they weigh little and both the materials and the construction are designed for enormous functionality and durability.
