I was checking out Avanti Linens and came across Fiesta blankets!

Anyone with experience? The colors appear more vibrant on Avanti than on Amazon.

Pretty colors but you may have trouble if you have pets on the bed.  My dogs have ruined several such blanket by snagging the threads with their toenails.  I have to be very careful of the type of lightweight blanket I use.

Never tried those but like the colors. I have had one that looks similar. I didn't care for it because it stretched out of shape.

I like the Maine Twill blanket that LL Bean sells. It does not stretch out of shape. Really nice blanket that comes in 9 colors. Top 2 are out of stock.

I love those colors! They would definitely wake up the space. Thank you for sharing.

@Kachina624, no pets on the bed here. I would get them their own Beautyrest, first. 😄  

They're just too big to share sleep space with.

Ido like the vibrant colors. Thinking of adding the red blanet to my holiday red bed look. I keep the red theme going thru Valentine's Day.

Pretty blankets!   I like Avanti, I own many of their hand towels that I hang in the bathrooms.  Very nice quality and embroidery.  After washing they come out like new.

I would think the blankets would be the same. @Snowpuppy 

I got mine on Amazon.

The Company Store has wonderful bed and bath items including Turkish towels.

I love cotton blankets but they shed and they take forever and a day to dry. I stopped using mine.

Ages ago I bought this type of blanket at JCP  and the shedding was minimal. I replaced them several years later, again at JCP.

The replacements, Made in India shed more than my dogs!

I'm going to do my homework for sure.

@Kachina624 Yes, and cats too.
