India ArtsSunflower Print Tapestry Cotton Bedspread 108" x 88" Full-Queen Yellow

Very nice, just what I wanted

Note: Clearly made in a busy mill it comes with a lot of cotton fluff Def need to wash it right away But wonderful!

1st pic natural light, 2nd pic is overhead lighting.This spread came earlier than I expected and it came as described. I'm using it as a wall hanging so the scent that other reviewers described didn't bother me. Although if I was using it as a bed spread I'd definitely wash it.The fabric is sturdy, but not thick. It almost feels like it's lightly coated with wax, but it doesn't affect the flexibility. It's not soft, and I would think that it'd be kinda itchy on the skin. There's some loose thread on the hemmed edges, and some speckling and skid mark stains. I suspect from ink or from the packaging process. Overall the "flaws" don't bother me, and I don't notice them unless I'm looking right at them.I feel like I'm definitely getting my money's worth out of this. I'm basically using it as a substitute for wallpaper to liven up my office space. If I was using it as a bed spread I'd probably be a little disappointed because it's just not very soft compared to similar Indian cotton textiles I have.

I didn't review this bedspread when I first received because I almost sent it back. The awful odor of the the dyes used was overpowering, but the print was so pretty that I figured it might be worth washing by itself two or three times. First time, I added vinegar to the wash to keep dyes from running. Second and third times, I used a SHOUT Color Catcher towelette -- that's what it took to neutralize ts odor neutral and make it my favorite summertime bed covering. One caveat: I wouldn't send it as a gift to anyone who wasn't patient, but I am very glad I did not send it back in haste.

The smell is awful. Smells like a strong solvent. Washing in cold water and hanging in the sunshine helped. I'm leaving it outside over night and keeping my fingers crossed

Nice big piece, for light bedspread or furniture throw. As other reviewers have noted, it has an odor when first opened, and needs a wash-and-dry before use. I used vinegar, as other reviewers have suggested, and and didn't notice any fading; it held up perfectly. The colors are brilliant, and will be equally nice as the piece fades, as I'm sure it will.

This spread perfectly fits my queen bed and is vibrant and well made. 2 thumbs up.

Faded badly in cold water wash
