Better Homes & Gardens Gray Cotton Waffle Bed Blanket, Twin

This 100% waffle weave cotton blanket washed and dried very well. No pilling. Full/queen size fit a full size bed quite nicely. The blanket is comfortable and kept me warm. I didn't use another blanket with this, but it was summertime in Michigan and I did have my air conditioning set at about 75°. This would also be nice to use to cover up while you're just lounging at home and watching TV. I'm happy with the soft silver (gray) color. I'm sure I'll spend many hours covered up with this blanket! It's great that they give you a little bonus - a free one year Better Homes & Gardens magazine subscription comes along with this purchase!

This blanket is more comfortable than I thought before i took it out of the bag. When i forst looked at it i thougjt it would be just a thin blanket, which it is but the texture is soft and looks bery nice paired with my bedspread. After washing and drying, the blanket held up very good with no pilling or strings hanging. It has a little bit of stretch to it which is good so if you pull on it it's not going to begin to tear like some other cotton blankets. I would recommend this nice blanket to anyone because of its texture and bright white color which would look good with any decor. I would suggest using it with any of the mainstays quilts which I also love. Like the wedding ring or shooting star patterns. Any of them would look great. The hem is sewn very well and looks like it will stay put wash after wash.
