Often associated as being a cosy winter quilt staple, you might be surprised to learn that quilted quilt covers are an ideal option for your summer bedding!

Lightweight & breathable, they offer style, comfort, and luxury to your bedroom during the warmer months of the year.

What are quilted quilt covers?

The magic is all inside! These quilt covers get their name from the product they’re made from, the cotton weave. The distinctive pattern on the inside of the quilt cover resembles the classic design of a quilt.

You may have also heard them referred to as “waffle” or “honeycomb” quilt covers – but don’t worry you won’t find any traces of sticky maple syrup here! Just super soft to touch cotton in a variety of colours and styles to suit even the fussiest of tastes.

Our Taya Quilt Cover Set is a chic and stylish design that can offer many different styling options with the addition of select accessories. Available in white, marle, charcoal, dusk and denim; all that’s left to do is to pick your favourite colour!

 

Made from breathable cotton

Made from breathable cotton

Quilted quilt covers are made from naturally absorbent and breathable cotton fabric.

Because of the raised surfaces of the cotton weave, airflow is increased, making them more breathable than a standard quilt cover. They also have a much larger surface area meaning that they’re more absorbent, keeping you dry and comfortable during those sweaty summer months.

Quilted quilt covers are also thick enough to be used as a blanket on their own, making them the perfect option for hot weather. Simply take your quilt out of your quilt cover and use just the cover by itself!

For those that sleep a little cooler and prefer an extra layer, try our Greenfirst ® Bamboo Quilt inside your quilt cover for a lighter summer option. Made from natural bamboo fibre, this quilt ensures superior breathability and moisture control for a comfortable sleep all night long! Plus, they’re 20% off in our Summer Sale until Monday 30 November 2020.

 

Textured style

The textured look and feel of quilted quilt covers provide your bedroom with an extra element of style. Use as a quilt cover, coverlet, or simply place across the bottom of the bed to complete that decorator look!

Available in olive and terracotta, Edmonton features a stylish geometric pattern making it the perfect accessory for your bedroom.

For those that prefer a little more pattern, the luxury trims of Brighton and panels of pink, coral and white of Virginia make these quilted quilt covers a statement piece on their own.

 

Low maintenance

Low maintenance

Perhaps the best part of all, quilted quilt covers are low maintenance. They’re supposed to be textured, meaning less ironing as wrinkles and creases are often impossible to notice! Simply throw them in the wash on a regular basis and hang them up to dry in the shade. They dry quickly so they’ll be ready to put back on your bed in no time at all!
