Bates Mill Store Luxury Bedding
Posted by: | CommentsLuxury bedding from the Bates Mill Store include customer favorites Martha Washington’s Choice and American Tradition. These bedspreads are examples of the finest woven chenille type (candlewick) bedspreads still very popular in the USA, especially the ones woven in Lewiston, Maine at Maine Heritage Weavers.
Candlewick throws, coverlets and bedspreads such as Martha Washington’s Choice, John Adams and American Tradition are referred to as “chenille”, “hobnail” or “terry loop” style. This beautiful woven style has a needlework effect that produces a 3-D effect through patterns of French knots, or uncut loops forming a fabric pile. Martha Washington’s Choice bedspread is an example of terry-loop (also known as hobnail, chenille or candlewick) construction. American Tradition is a lighter weight design and more popular in warmer climates.
Chenille loop (candlewicks) are very popular for blankets and other bedding produced by Maine Heritage Weavers, Inc., of Lewiston, Maine. Their website is www.maineheritageweavers.com. The Bates Mill Store, www.batesmillstore.com has been carrying USA made terry chenille bedspreads for over 50 years. We carry all of the Maine Heritage Weavers bedding products.
Free fabric color swatches are available! Custom sizes are also offered for a small additional charge.
