I was concerned about laundering the bedspread, if the colors would run on the white?

Hi...I love the quilt but haven't had the need to launder it yet...it is being used as a "topper" over a solid bedspread. I think it will launder well just by looking at the construction...well-made and seems of generally good quality...should translate to an item that would wash well.

I would be more concerned about the quilt coming apart or shrinking than the colors fading. I washed mine and the colors were fine, but it didn't fit on the bed (not long enough). I sent mine back. If you'll notice, on the pillow shams, the stitches don't even go all the way to the end and they are loose and not secured at all. Save your money for something better. That's what I did. I waited and found something on sale at a nice department store (the one that has the parade at Thanksgiving). Anyway, I paid twice as much but got something that I really think will last a long time.

I washed it before I put it on my bed and there was no running of the colors. It still looks beautiful. :)

The bedspread washed great and colors didn't run. Ruffles even puffed up more. Won't dry completely in dryer next time though since it did seem to shrink a little.

I would call mine pure white. Checked the color next to my white/white sheets just to confirm.

I have a cream daybed that it matches perfectly. If the daybed is white, it will not be a perfect match but I guess will be close enough.

Hello to be honest I don't know I haven used it yet, still waiting for my husband to finishes printing if you know what I mean. But it should be ok, because I wash all my comforter on fine wash and it come out perfect.

Gloria, I don't think that this quilt would look good with ivory because its design is on white. I love the quilt so much that I thought I would buy one for a beach nightly rental I own, it has beige walls and light wood bed set, it didn't look good at all. I have it in my guest room with pale yellow walls and brown leather bed and dark brown bed tables...looks wonderful there but the white is white white.... sorry

My fabric is white so I'm not worried about fading. I think the fabric is polyester so staining hasn't been an issue.

I think they recommend that the bedspread should be dried cleaned only. I have not had that done yet.

I have a white eyelet bed skirt and I like the way it looks, but I think off-white would match slightly better.

You probably can. I was concerned about the color myself but it is washable.

This is a beautiful bedspread, but it may not suit your purpose. It is not reversible. The colors range from a very light pink to a much darker pink---there's no red. I have it on a double bed, and I also use a bedskirt because I wanted coverage all the way to the floor, as I have storage containers under the bed. Without the bedskirt, you could see the things under the bed.

Says spot wash only or hand wash. I hand washed and hung to dry, but the white just isn't as white any longer

I think so. It's not stark white--but not ivory either. I'd call it bone. I have white in my duvet cover and it coordinates.

It is definitely white so I don't know if it would look OK or not. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

I wouldn't use the white on white. Or even the ivory on white. There isn't enough contrast. I have pics of the white on a red table cloth or the red on black tablecloths and they looked fantastic!

Oh boy...this quilt has lot of colors in it....it would depend on the wall color for me, but light purple, yellow, light green, light blue...all of these colors would look nice. I actually have mine with a white ruffle, since its in a spare bedroom, and my walls are cream with white wood trim. I needed to incorporate some more white because my curtains are white and I have white furniture. I wanted this room to be kinda plain. Probably in the spring I will spruce it up a little and I think I will try to find a nice purple to go with it.

Wanda, I use it for all my laundry and it works great. I think it is especially good on darks because it keeps them from fading, but it cleans everything. I would be more concerned with the colors from your print running when it's washed, but if it's been washed before that shouldn't be a problem. I wouldn't wash it with other darks because they might bleed onto the white background. I always throw in a SHout Color Catcher with my laundry. If colors run, it catches the dyes before the get on they other clothes. It works with the Woolite detergent great. Janet

It is true white and the fabric has no sheen to it. However, the stuffing in the comforter tends to shift and bunch up a bit. I haven't tried to wash it yet, but I suspect that washing it will only make this issue worse. I would not recommend this one if you will be needing to wash it regularly.
