Luxury Matelasse Coverlets

Luxury matelsse coverlets are woven in cotton yarn, which has a fuzzy pile effect. The yarn protrudes from all sides of the bedspread or coverlet and produces a much softer feel.

Coverlets and bedspreads can be woven in silk, cotton, wool or rayon. Maine Heritage Weavers, Inc., weaves bedspreads and coverlets in high grade 100 percent cotton. Martha Washington’s Choice is one of the most popular chenille designs offered in both bedspreads and coverlets and is of terry loop construction, also called “chenille” or “candlewick”.

Queen Elizabeth, Abigail Adams, Heritage and Cape Cod are true matelasse bedspreads woven at this popular textile company. Matelasse is defined as quilted or “trapunto” construction.
