Edie Linen Cotton Bedspread - Butter Yellow

The Edie is a quilted velvet bedspread with two very different faces. The top is a soft cotton velvet in a warm butter yellow, and the reverse is a paler, natural linen-look weave, so the same piece reads two ways depending on which side you turn to the room. It measures 140 x 220cm, a size that sits neatly over a single or a small double as a top layer rather than a full mattress-covering throw. The face and reverse are both 100% cotton, with a polyester filling giving it the gentle weight and loft of a light quilt.

This is a bedspread made for the end of the bed and the top of the day. Fold it across the foot for warmth you can pull up on a cool night, or spread it fully over a made bed for an extra layer that softens the whole look. The butter yellow face works with warm neutrals and natural wood; turn it to show the linen-look reverse and it settles into a quieter, more pared-back scheme. It suits a bedroom, a reading chair, or a spare room where a second layer earns its place.

The velvet is quilted and hand-finished, with small hand-tied threads dotted across the face that hold the layers together and give it a soft, lived-in character. The linen-look reverse means you genuinely get two textures in one piece, one plush and one flatter and more relaxed. As cotton, the velvet face is breathable and takes colour well, though velvet pile does benefit from careful handling. With no care instructions given by the supplier, we would treat it gently and check the sewn-in label before washing.

What is the Edie bedspread made from?

Both the velvet face and the reverse are 100% cotton, with a polyester filling that gives the piece its soft quilted loft and gentle weight.

Why does the reverse look different from the front?

The face is a plush cotton velvet in butter yellow while the reverse is a flatter, natural linen-look weave, so you can turn either side to the room.

What size bed does the 140 x 220cm fit?

At 140 x 220cm it works best as a top layer over a single or small double, folded at the foot or spread across a made bed.

What are the little threads across the top?

Those are hand-tied details that hold the quilted layers together, a traditional finish that also gives the velvet its soft, lived-in character.

How should I care for the cotton velvet?

The supplier gives no washing guidance, so please check the sewn-in label before cleaning. Cotton velvet is breathable but the pile is best handled gently.
