Vivid Blue Quilt/ Pillowcase Set (Guatemala)

This is a great quilt. The quality is wonderful, the color is fantastic. My only issue is that it is not color-fast, even after washing. Any recommendations on making it color fast would be appreciated. We have quit using it for the moment because it turns our skin blue (and the washer and dryer and anything that comes into contact with it)

I ordered this to compliment freshly painted blue walls, and was a little skeptical about what the quality would be. It arrived less than 48 hours after I ordered it and astonished me with the quality of the construction of both the quilt and the pillow covers. The quilt is deep, vibrant hues of blue with a surrounding black border. As mentioned in other reviews, it has tabs to hang it on a wall. The pillow shams were the big surprise; they have hours and hours of hand embroidered flowers on them and are coordinate with each other and the quilt. They zip closed, too. It is obviously handmade, but quality construction, not tourist goods. FYI, I put it on an extra high full size bed and ordered a king sized quilt. It drops nicely on both sides and eliminates the need for a dust ruffle.

Awesome colors, brightens the room. Very vivid , sets off my furniture very well

I'd give the blanket 5 stars but the one pillow case was growsly distorted and mis sewn. I did not ecxpect them to match perfectly because they were handmade. Art should have some imperfectionsbut this pillowcase had big black rope like stiching on it while the other one was beautiful.

This set is STUNNING. It's a very heavy-weight quilt and more appropriate for colder weather. It's not a summer coverlet. I chose this gift for my neighbors as a Christmas gift. I'm looking forward to giving it to them. The wife is from Guatemala. She does so very much for the poor and homeless in our church and community. I love the fact that a portion of the proceeds from my purchase will go back to her home country. (I think she will, too!) It makes a truly beautiful gift into a very thoughtful gift, as well. Thank you AGAIN, Overstock.
