How to properly care for your quilt so that it lasts a really long time.
Rule #1: The worst thing you can do for this quilt is to put it in a closet or keep it tucked away from the world! This quilt was created to be used and to be loved! Snuggle under it and unwind after a long day. Every single stitch has love in it! The best way to keep a quilt fresh and the fabric bouncy and non-stuffy smelling is to USE it!
Before you wash your quilt, ask yourself 2 questions...
Can I spot clean the quilt?
YES
NO
When was the last time I washed the quilt? Unless you're a really messy person or using the quilt really hard all the time, you shouldn't need to wash your quilt more than once a year. (yes, you read that right!) Light use is good for it!

non bleach detergent.
That being said... if it's time for a wash...
