Homemade quilts wrap you with so much more than just the essence of warmth: they wrap you with love, tradition, and the labor of the heart. Respect is due to every quilt, be it handed down or lovingly put together in a home workshop. At PS Quilting, we sell home made quilts that you can buy and also teach you about keeping them as beautiful and much loved throughout a period of time
Why Do Homemade Quilts Need Special Care?
Homemade quilts are more delicate because of their intricate stitching, quality fabrics, and the love heavily imbued into the seams. They often contain natural cotton batting and very fine needlework that quickly deteriorates under rough washing. Giving a homemade quilt the sensitive care it deserves would keep its design, texture, personal value, and beautifully enigmatic quality intact forever
How Should You Prepare A Quilt For Washing?
Before placing it in the washing machine, inspect the quilt for any loose threads or damage if there are only a few stains, gentle spot cleaning may be done. Please consider the age and amount of sewing for such a process; if it is old or quilted heavily, use the hand wash variation on a sink or in the bathtub. Cold water with a gentle detergent is important in that the fabric color remains intact while generally supporting the fabric
What’s The Best Way To Wash A Home Made Quilt?
Hand washing is always best, but if you trust your machine, you can use it correctly. Place such a large home made quilt in some mesh bag or old pillowcase. Don't add any bleach or a strong detergent. To ensure that no residue is left behind to eventually eat away at the fibers, run it through two full cycles so no hints of detergent are left
Can You Dry Homemade Quilts Without Ruining Them?
Yes, but skip the heat. Tumble dry on low. Use some dryer balls if you have them to reduce wrinkles even more. Make sure to flip the quilt around every now and then so that mildew does not decide to pay a visit. The sun will bleach the fabric so avoid drying it outside in the direct sun
How Often Should You Clean Your Homemade Quilt?
Frequent cleaning might be harmful to even the most nicely made quilts. Only scrub your quilts once or twice a year, that's it. Ordinary daily usage or visible soiling can indicate when a quilt should be washed. When not in use, keep quilts in cotton, breathable bags, and steer clear of plastic bins; this is to help prevent mildewing and keep your rugs soft
