Does anyone here own one? I saw a light blue and white one at Home Goods that I kind of fell in love with. I love that color combination too.

 

Yes I'm sure some posters here think anything Laura Ashley is "outdated", so no need to add that thanks.

 

This quilt was also reversible to a very narrow stripe pattern, I liked that too. Just wondering about the quality and how they hold up.

I don't have the quilts, but did buy percale sheet set last year,to my surprise  i like them for summer, cotton quilts are the best fabric to buy.

@Greeneyedlady21  - There are quite a few Laura Ashley quilts on Amazon and you could check reviews there.  Know it's not the same as hearing from someone here that has one but at least you could see what other reviewers say.  Just an FYI - the ones I looked at have high 4 to 5 star ratings so that is good.

I have been purchasing their quilts and comforters since shopping in their store back in the 80's at Ridgewood, New Jersey. Fond memories @Greeneyedlady21. When they closed their stores, I was quite unhappy about it. 

I have ordered from Amazon. The quilts are lovely, although a bit less full. And I have one on my bed and the guest room. I also purchased the matching sheets which are 100% cotton and very soft. In the Fall, I switch to a comforter. I have them cleaned and stored at my dry cleaners seasonally.

 

I LOL when you mentioned about "outdated." When I first started decorating with Laura Ashley, I asked my husband if it bothered him that it may be too flowery and feminine for the main bedroom but he laughed and said it was fine by him.😄

 

Hope you find something you love!💕

No, they're not outdated. In my house, every bed has a quilt. I like the cozy chic aspect to it. Laura Ashley quilts are made very well. I love the reversible quilts. I also adore the Cracker Barrel quilts. I've had some for years. They really hold up well. If you like the quilt, enjoy it!

@Greeneyedlady21, about 10 years ago, I wanted a cotton quilty coverlet for my bed & purchased a Laura Ashley quilt on amazon.

I love that thing, & it's the perfect weight. 

 

That quilt has been washed many, many times and still looks terrific.

I have Laura Ashley quilts on twin beds in my guest room. They are lavender and white floral. I put them on in the late spring and leave them until fall when I change them out with Laura Ashley back and white toile print quilts. I bought both quilt sets at Macy's My quilts are also reversible. I have had these quilts for years and they hold up well. I don't think they look dated.

I remember the Country Living quilts. I also remember Sunday River Quilts. I still have a couple of quilts from the 1990's. The name of one is Sun Bonnet Sue and the other one has a round floral pinwheel design.
