"Madison" Three-Piece Reversible Embroidered Quilt & Sham Set

Elegant and comfortable "Madison" is an overall Jacobean-style floral and scroll pattern. The colors of blue and white are reminiscent of delicate Delft pottery. The intricacy of the front of the quilt and shams is relieved by accents of sage green. Scalloped edges and overall vermicelli quilting provide intense surface texture and a thoughtful, heirloom look and feel.

The quilt reverses to a lovely blue and white stripe that provides you with a second option for a different look. Both the quilt and shams have self-binding for a rich, finishing touch. The soft cotton fabric is pre-washed to give it a home-spun feel. With the lightweight construction, you can enjoy this quilt year-round. Warm up your master bedroom or welcome friends and family into your guest room!

The set includes two matching pillow shams (one with Twin size). Made of 100% cotton. Imported.

    • About the Design:
    Jacobean prints are inspired by the crewel embroidery done in early 17th century This style of embroidery was typically done with either two-ply wool yarn on linen or silk thread on linen, and featured intricate, stylized florals and animals. This style of embroidery was brought over to the colonies by British settlers and continues to be a classic and elegant design inspiration.

    The Jacobean era refers to the period in English and Scottish history that coincides with the reign of King James I (1603 -1625) of England, who was also known as James VI of Scotland. The Jacobean era succeeds the Elizabethan era, and specifically denotes a style of architecture, visual arts, decorative arts, and literature that is predominant of that period. The word "Jacobean" is derived from the Hebrew name Jacob, which is the original form of the English name James. Because this style of art and design has been around for more than 400 years there are many expressions of its style and artistry.

    About Vermicelli Stitching:
    A type of stipple quilting, vermicelli stitching creates a pattering of curving lines that resembles the slender pasta. Spaced closely together, the stitching adds a rich texture to the item. This delicate addition completes the piece with another layer of fashion.

    Care Instructions:
    Machine wash separately in cold water on gentle cycle. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting.

    Thread Count:

    Quality bedding is often defined by the thread count of the fabric, whether it's a sheet, a comforter or a blanket. Thread count is the number of woven threads in one square inch of fabric. Higher thread counts create higher-quality weaves that generally feel smoother and softer. Lower thread counts can pill and feel rough, but are affordable and serve their purposes just fine.

    Common thread counts range from 180 to 320, but thread counts as high as 700 also exist. The thread count alone doesn't determine how a fabric performs and feels, though. You'll also want to look at the yarn size and ply when determining the level of quality you desire.

    Yarn Size: Yarn size refers to the thickness of the individual threads that make up a woven fabric. The higher the yarn size, the finer the thread. Quality sheets usually have a yarn size ranging from 40 to 100. Finer yarns can only be made from high-quality, long staple cottons such as Supima. Yarn size is important to thread count because finer yarns take up less space than thicker yarns, thus the highest thread count sheets are generally made from the finest yarns.

    Ply: The other important component to thread count is ply. Single ply fabrics are made from individually woven threads of yarn, while two-ply fabrics are made from two threads of yarn that are first twisted together and then woven. Since two-ply fabrics have essentially double the thread count of their single ply counterparts, two-ply fabrics must be made from extremely fine yarns, otherwise the end product might feel too bulky and heavy.
