Geneva Home Fashions Avondale Manor Evangeline Quilt & Sham Set

I purchased this to complete a bedroom for my adult grandson. I was concerned about the print until it arrived and I found then it was not too feminine for his room. I feel the quality is great for the price. As in other reviews I looked for loose stitching and found this quilt to be finished very well.

I would not have given $10.00 for this at a thrift store. The stitching is incomplete and hanging out in loops everywhere. It is unraveling out of the package and stinks. The stitching looks like it was done with their eyes closed. I can't say that this won't last one wash because apparently it didn't even last through production or shipment.

I purchased this exact item from another online retailer. It is black and white only. NO GRAY. Even though the pictures look like there is some gray. It is a very lightweight quilt. Very pretty. BUT It arrived with a strong chemical smell. I am not overly sensitive to smells or anything like that....but this was like it had been soaked in some chemical for an extended amount of time. I have washed it once ...with double the detergent, fabric softener, unstoppable washer beads AND LYSOL fabric sanitizer. It did reduce the smell but it's still there in some areas. I am rewashing using the same cleaning agents minus the unstoppable...and put it on soak. Hopefully that does it. Otherwise I will hang it outside and let it sit out some and try washing again. Way to much work for what should have had a fresh and clean scent out of the package.

Love this bed set, although it wasnt very clear on what the set comes with, i almost bought two new pillows to fit the smaller ones, but it actually comes with the pillows themselves already covered (the decoration pillows). Of course the two larger pillow covers are just covers. Very soft after washing.
